Q2: Communication is central to professional activity of scientists & engineers. How do you provide Ss opps to develop comm skills? #ALsci

amykfmurphy - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:15 PM EST

A2 #ALsci I think Ss need opportunities to write like scientists, which they don't do much of currently. Different audience than ELA class!

A2 #ALsci When I work w/Ts on lessons, remind them to let Ss TWIRL-talk, write, investigate, read, listen. Lots of communication there.

MarlaRHines Jan 27 @ 9:17 PM EST

A2: First, Ts have to stop doing all the talking and let Ss communicate with us and each other. Then we have something to work with #alsci

A4 #ALsci justification or reasoning of argument should connect to scientific concept, so Ss need variety of resources to help w connection

@amykfmurphy the verbs allow Ss action. Conduct. Investigate. Design. Evaluate.Ss are in control and can be proud of their findings #ALsci

A7 #ALsci I like how @ADI_ScienceTeam lessons require Ss to focus on 3 big areas-intro, method, and argument https://t.co/EBKsg8Bm7g
