Under the Sea: A Deep Dive into 3D Learning Curriculum Modules using Authentic Phenomena in Marine Environments

Session Format

Workshop (90 minutes)

Target Audience

K12 Educators

Location

Workshop 2 (PARB 239)

Abstract for the conference program

The Advanced Manufacturing and Prototyping Integrated to Unlock Potential (AMP-IT-UP) project is an NSF-sponsored Math and Science Partnership between the Griffin-Spalding County School System and Georgia Tech’s Center for Education Integrating Science, Mathematics and Computing (CEISMC). As part of the AMP-IT-UP project, week-long life science modules were developed that emphasize the integration of math and science practices. The practices were grouped together into integrative themes (Experimental Design, Data Visualization, and Data-Driven Decision Making) which emphasize concepts in NGSS Science and Engineering practices, providing a foundation for three-dimensional learning within an authentic context. This session is aimed at K-12 teachers who will learn about the overall AMP-IT-UP project along with experiencing the life/marine science modules: Marine Snow, Oil Spill, Deep Sea, Coral Reef, Crab Aquarium challenges. Participants will also receive access to curriculum materials and discover how the modules can be integrated within their classrooms.
