San Diego area middle school science teachers have requested professional development opportunities in the use of probeware and data collection devices to enhance their science programs. Data Intensive Science is planned to respond to this need!
Join other Middle School Science teachers in a professional learning community - get your hands on the use of technology for effective, standards-based, data intensive science. Participants will use probeware and software tools to display science data. Essential Science Standards at grades 6,7, and 8 will be featured in Data Intensive Science Workshops;
- Featuring Pasco probeware using Mac platform (also PC compatible)
- Access existing standards-based labs for middle school science that are data-driven
- Utilize data tools to report and display scientific data that supports essential science standards
- Explore correlations to Mathematics standards
- Strategies for English Learners!
