- Eight Interactive Whiteboard Tips
Interactive whiteboards are effective learning tools for whole class instruction. Place a carpeted step in front of the whiteboard so smaller children can comfortably reach high up on the board. The top step should be wide enough to stand on. Use an IWB pen to drag items on the screen without selecting them first (as with the mouse). Install Google Earth and use the pointer to zoom in on a particular place on the globe relevant to the lesson you are teaching. Reduce your in-lesson preparation time by preparing and saving activity files before class. Velcro the remote control, eraser and pens to the whiteboard. Have your students use a soft mallet on the whiteboard instead of their fingers. Recalibrate your whiteboard before each lesson. Save your lessons s

- Enhanced learning with Technology: Strategies for Differentiating
Within the four ways for differentiating instruction there are embedded several other learning strategies which are used in conjunction with each other. (http://www.dese.state.mo.us/divinstr/gifted/pubref.htm#INSTRUCTIONAL%20STRATEGIES) Missouri Department of Education
Teachers new to differentiating instruction may initially choose to use individual strategies and begin by differentiating either content, process or product .
It is also important to recognize that there is a considerable overlap between the strategies listed below. As teachers become comfortable with these strategies several may be very effectively employed simultaneously.

- ENSI/SENSI Lesson: Mystery Boxes
Students manipulate sealed "mystery" boxes and attempt to determine the inner structure of the boxes which contain a moving ball and a fixed barrier or two. The nature and sources of uncertainty inherent in the process of problem-solving are experienced. The uncertainty of the conclusions is reduced by student collaboration. PRINCIPAL CONCEPT Scientific knowledge is fundamentally uncertain.

- ENSI/SENSI Lesson: Nat.of Sci. FALSE ASSUMPTIONS
Little deceptive problem stories are presented to the class, and students are challenged to solve each problem by asking only yes/no questions. The key is for students to recognize what the False Assumption is that makes the solution tricky, and that many common problems are difficult to solve because we tend to assume a particular paradigm. Things are not always what they seem! Science is a way to work around or through those false assumptions. PRINCIPAL CONCEPT Scientific knowledge is contingent and subject to modification. ASSOCIATED CONCEPTS Science contains an element of uncertainty. ASSESSABLE OBJECTIVES Students will.... 1. related insights from this activity to their personal lives. 2. be unable to solve thought problems because of false a

- ENSI/SENSI Nature of Science Lesson List
Nature of Science lessons. In order for evolution to be properly understood as a science, ENSI maintains that a thorough introduction to the nature of modern science is a necessary prerequisite to teaching evolution. The lessons included here are intended to do just that. Intended Audience/Grade Level These lessons are intended for use in any high school biology course. However, many can be used in middle school / junior high school, possibly with slight modification depending on teacher's style and approach, and the experience and level of students. Many would likewise be appropriate for use in junior college or lower division university levels.

- Environmental Quiz
The environmental quiz was developed at the University of Minnesota in 1991 for use in a course dealing with a broad array of economic, social, and environmental issues. Since that time, the quiz has been taken by thousands of college students across the United States and by a number of other groups including teachers, high school students, boy scouts, community leaders, and forest products industry employees. Results show a pervasive pessimism, revealed by the fact that students, as well as a surprisingly high percentage of others, consistently indicate environmental conditions to be worse than they really are. Respondents also consistently demonstrate a shocking level of misinformation about forests and domestic forests in particular.

About the Game - Background Information for Educators The purpose of the game is to: introduce science-based, educational concepts raise awareness and interest in topics dealing with estuaries, water quality, tides, marine debris, and what YOU can do to help. In-depth information on topics is available in the “Field Guide” in the game and in this section. The game occurs inside the ecosystem of an estuary on the west coast of the United States. Following a young girl named Valerie, players interact with Oscar the sea otter, and the fictional Claminator, a geoduck clam. To succeed, players must learn about the factors that produce healthy estuaries, food webs, and why estuaries are essential to both ocean life and to humans.
