Teaching Effective Lessons examines the components that effective inquiry-based physical science lessons have in common, and how you can combine these components, including a productive learning environment, to improve your own lessons in physical science.
Course Objectives
- Learn how to apply the principles of backward design to revise or plan a lesson
- Explore ways to improve the classroom learning environment
- Apply what you learn to improve lessons on waves or motions and forces
