Beyond Engagement: The power of science simulations
Speaker:
Dr. Scott Buhr
Subject:
Teaching Methods
Description:
Simulations in the science classroom are a powerful way to engage students. More than being used for engagement, though, simulations can be used to teach students how to build scientific models that have predictive power. This workshop will explain how teachers can use freely available, online science simulations to teach their students how to create scientific models.
