Slide that says... Supporting All Students to Make Sense of Phenomena by Building on All of Their Intellectual Resources Philip Bell University of Washington March 2025 Advancing Coherent and Equitable Systems of Science Education (ACESSE) This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 Unported License.

Slide that says... Three principles towards more equitable science education Principle 1: Notice sense-making repertoires. Consider students’ diverse sense-making as connecting to science practices. Principle 2: Support sense-making. Support students to use their sense-making repertoires and experiences as critical tools in engaging with science practices. Principle 3: Engage diverse sense-making. Students’ scientific practices and knowledge are always developing and their community histories, values, and practices contribute to scientific understanding and problem solving. From: Bang, Brown, Calabrese Barton, Rosebery & Warren, Toward more equitable learning in science, In Helping students make sense of the world using next generation science and engineering practices, NSTA. There are pictures of a Native teacher working with a Native students, a Native scientist working with a Native student, and a group of Native community members inquiring with a waterway.
Our next Friday session at #NSTA25 is at 1pm in Conv Ctr 203B.
It is focused on SUPPORTING DIVERSE SENSEMAKING OF EACH STUDENT! We will learn to see student's intellectual resources using these EQUITY PRINCIPLES.
