Participants will learn about the development, implementation, and ongoing improvement of the Students With Inquiring Minds Are Scientists (S.W.I.M.A.S.) model for student-driven inquiry-based learning. This model includes deep alignment with the standards, pre-assessment, student-generated questions, teacher-student goal-setting conferences, individualized learning pathways, scientific reasoning and explanation, and post-assessment. We will share our journey with the model before as well as during the COVID-19 school closings. Learn how the culture of “doing” science was maintained in the midst of social distancing and school closings. Register here.
