QUESTION: Why do geoscientists have the coolest careers on the planet and how can teachers prepare students for it? ANSWER: http://bit.ly/geoscience EarthComm® is a comprehensive, project-based, secondary level Earth and space sciences program. It includes student learning materials, teacher resources, teacher-support networks, and assessment tools. EarthComm also features a robust Web site filled with student and teacher resources regularly updated by AGI. EarthComm® promotes systems thinking. In EarthComm®, students learn about the interactions among the various parts of the Earth system by reflecting on the ways in which matter and energy flow through the Earth system, and the different ways in which Earth’s processes occur over time and space. EarthComm® fosters Earth stewardship. With EarthComm®, students discover the wonder and importance of Earth and space science by studying it where it counts—in their community. EarthComm® utilizes local and regional issues and concerns to stimulate problem-solving activities, and to foster a sense of Earth stewardship by students in their communities.]]>

0 SRI Research Study on Project-Based Inquiry Science Curriculum (June 2014) /slideshow/pbis-efficacystudyy1outcomesreport-2014/38427460 pbis-efficacy-study-y1-outcomes-report2014-140827155012-phpapp02
New NSF-backed, Independent Research Study Shows Project-Based Inquiry Curriculum Materials Has a Positive Effect on How Students Learn Science and on Leveling the STEM Playing Field. NSF-backed study is the first to examine use by middle-school teachers and students of science curriculum aligned with the new Framework for K-12 Science Education and Next Generation Science Standards. The study used an NGSS-aligned curriculum called Project-Based Inquiry Science™ published by IT’S ABOUT TIME®. The most profound finding to come out of the study indicates that students taught using project-based inquiry curriculum aligned with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) substantially outperformed students taught using a traditional science curriculum. The results of the research have broad-reaching implications for the entire education spectrum — from classroom and student engagement, to teacher Professional Development, to education policies at the state and national level. The independent, randomized controlled study conducted by SRI International*, compared the impact of the research-based, NGSS-aligned curriculum called Project-based Inquiry Science™ (“PBIS”), published by IT’S ABOUT TIME® (“IAT”), to traditional science curriculum materials for middle-school students in a large and diverse urban school district. The study focused on two areas of science: earth science (processes that shape the Earth’s surface) and physical science (energy). 3 Big Takeaways 1. Success: Students taught using the Project-based Inquiry Science curriculum materials outperformed students who were taught using standard science curriculum materials. 2. The Great Equalizer: Project-based Inquiry Science curriculum can help close the learning gaps among students of underrepresented demographics in STEM fields and level the field between girls and boys. 3. Teacher/Student Engagement Increases: The study shows that PBIS teachers in the study (who were all new to the curriculum) were more likely to engage their students.]]>
