PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT and PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION
Inspiring better outcomes for our planet through science education
WHAT BIOZONE OFFERS:
Next Generation Science Standards provide an innovative framework for 21st Century science learning. This ambitious initiative presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers alike. BIOZONE provides specific NGSS curricula and offers structured and tailored Professional Learning and/or Implementation Workshops. These aim to equip adopters of our programs with a comprehensive understanding of what BIOZONE offers and how to implement a student-friendly but rigorous NGSS program.
Training sessions may range from half day to full day. In person or webinar depending on your budget and timeframe. We look forward to assisting you in enhancing science teaching and learning in your school. BIOZONE will work with you to solve some of the most common obstacles to implementing a successful NGSS program, including:
- Understanding how BIOZONE’s products embrace NGSS pedagogy
- How to effectively assess your students in three dimensions.
- How to support ELL students in science.
- How to scaffold delivery of content in a way that reflects how students learn (the 5Es model).
- How to support students in developing an understanding of core content through use of science and engineering practices and application of crosscutting concepts.
- How to encourage students to think critically and solve problems.
- How to approach the delivery of NGSS content in a differentiated classroom.
- How to use supplementary resources effectively.
