  1. Pathways to Scientific Teaching Sarah Lauffer University of Wisconsin Diane Ebert-May Michigan State University

  2. Instructional Design- Learning Cycle • Engage • Explore • Explain/Elaborate • Assess

  3. Engage

  4. Scientific teaching forms the core of my teaching philosophy. Question 1 Please respond on a scale of 1-5: 1=strongly agree; 2=agree; 3=neutral; 4= disagree; 5=strongly disagree

  5. Question 2 Students learn science best by doing science. Please respond on a scale of 1-5: 1=strongly agree; 2=agree; 3=neutral; 4= disagree; 5=strongly disagree

  6. Question 3 Science should be taught as it is practiced. Please respond on a scale of 1-5: 1=strongly agree; 2=agree; 3=neutral; 4= disagree; 5=strongly disagree

  7. Learners doing science...

  8. Question 4 How important is it to use multiple kinds of data to assess student learning? Please respond on a scale if 0-100 in increments of 10:

  9. Question 5 What percent of the assessment data from your students do you use to make instructional decisions? Please respond on a scale of 0 - 100 in increments of 10:

  10. Question 6 Please respond on a scale of 1-5: 1=strongly agree; 2=agree; 3=neutral; 4= disagree; 5=strongly disagree Scientific teaching usually occurs in lecture classes (large or small) in my department.

  11. In my department, excellence/scholarship in teaching is rewarded at a level comparable to excellence/scholarship in research. Question 7 Please respond on a scale of 1-5: 1=strongly agree; 2=agree; 3=neutral; 4= disagree; 5=strongly disagree

  12. Explore

  13. Identify desired outcomes Determine acceptable evidence Design learning experiences and instruction Wiggins and McTighe 1998

  14. Identify one teaching challenge for an introductory course Develop 3 learning objectives Design/select 3 types of assessments for each objective that demonstrates students achieved the objective. Exploring Scientific Teaching ...in groups by discipline 10 minutes

  15. Go to the ST paper - on-line resources What teaching challenges have other people identified about your topic? How have they resolved them? What data do they present? Do you accept the data? Will your peers accept the data? Prepare a report - select reporter Exploring Scientific Teaching (cont.) 20 minutes

  16. Scientific Teaching • Active is learning by doing • Assessment is evidence • Diversity is science for all...
