Episode Synopsis

"My students just aren't curious!" I get it - I hear it all the time, and I do agree, oftentimes middle and high school students don't seem very curious. But here's a thought: are your students "not curious" or are they just not curious about *your content*? And if it's the latter, what can we do?Make space for "social learning" -- because that's what matters to our students. How can our content and our instruction bring in this "social experience"? How can we better connect what's relevant to our students to what needs to be the focus of our classroom? In this episode, Nicole VanTassel shares some thoughts and strategies to capitalize on our adolescents' social drives (and desire to find their place in society!) to move their science learning forward.Get More Help With 3D TeachingTeaching Science in 3D on Instagram & FacebookSubmit a QuestionExplore phenomenon-based, discovery-centered learning with iExploreScienceGet more information about the NGSS with Sadler Science.Get Erin's new 3D lesson self-assessment tool by signing up for her email list.  Click here to join.  Enroll in a Be Curious Community Cohort now.You're invited to check out Bring Wonder Back, an on-demand video series designed to help you take your first steps to transforming your students into scientists with 3D teaching practices — what the NGSS is all about!
