A1. Curriculum
Patterns Science is a new curriculum created in Beaverton, Oregon designed for implementation across the state. The high school sequence includes freshman Physics, sophomore Chemistry, and junior Biology. Salem-Keizer school district is currently piloting the curriculum in hopes of adopting it by 2024. Instructors in the Salem-Keizer school district are tasked with implementing the curriculum. This process has been underway for two years with Physics and Chemistry being delivered and Biology to follow for this year’s juniors. I personally teach Chemistry and will focus on DCI PS3.D Energy in Chemical Processes and Everyday Life and the progression of standards HS-PS3-3, HS-ESS1-1, HS-PS4-5, and HS-LS2-5 …show more content…

Physics addresses standards from this DCI twice. In Unit 5 the stanadard HS-PS4-5 is met as students learn solar cells capture the sun’s energy and produce electrical energy. HS-PS3-3 is met in Unit 6 when students evaluate the ways in which energy can be transformed. Chemistry builds upon these ideas in Unit 3 when we meet HS-ESS1-1 to understand fusion releases radiation that eventually travels from the sun to the Earth. In Biology, these concepts are taken a step further in Unit 6 when students learn photosynthesis and cellular respiration utilize solar energy to create life in standard HS-LS2-5. By the end of their third science class, students will recognize energy created through fusion processes in the sun is transformed on earth by lifeforms in a process called photosynthesis (Patterns Science, …show more content…

For example, the first Chemistry lesson in Unit 1 includes a powerpoint and a Cornell Notes template. The premade powerpoint has imbedded notice/wonder formative strategies for the first seven slides and HKWL (Know, Want to Know, Learned) on the next three slides (Patterns Science, 2019). The curriculum also includes word wall templates for every unit and indicates in the slideshows when a new word should be added to the wall. The Patterns Science curriculum provides almost scripted materials, meaning instructors who implement it have no other option than to do the exact same

    After further analysis of the KCKPS science pacing guide I am able to conclude major findings from my study of the document. One major finding is that the curriculum document I chose had many different helpful aspects offered to the teacher. It includes many different online resources, a projected timeline for each unit, big ideas, and learning goals, as well as the standards the content is based off of. There was one limitation of the document that I found and that was how the content is being recommended to be taught to students. The content from this curriculum document does not take into consideration the students interest and needs.

    As the education coordinator, I will first approach my subject matter as a system itself. I will design my materials first by identifying their purpose, then second their function and finally deriving the structure of the educational materials from the necessary functions. In developing educational materials, I will also want to familiarize myself with my students as I know that according to communication models they may interpret what I communicate differently than I intend due to how they “decode” (Nelson, Staggers, 2014). Once I have an understanding for what my students know, I will move forward by assessing their learning styles as I believe that is an incredibly valuable thing for an educator as well as a student to know. Now that I know what my students know and how

During the explain portion of the 5E lesson, Dr. Bradbury supported student engagement and understanding by asking higher level thinking questions; evidence for this can be seen in sections .35-1:15 min and 9:19-11:26 min of the video. The questions Dr. Bradbury asked provided an opportunity for rich in-depth conversations by student to discuss the idea of heat transfer.

    The process of photosynthesis is vital for the survival of most life on Earth. Without photosynthesis plant life would be unable to create its own food and sustain themselves causing them to die. Earth would lack the oxygen and energy that plant life provides. Producers are the main source of energy for living organisms because they can directly absorb light energy and turn it into chemical energy. Animals then eat the plants which give them a portion of that energy.

    I often think about my potential contributions in scientific discovery and how they would be used to enhance mankind’s understanding of our surroundings. These thoughts are the force behind my reason to major in chemistry, and I believe receiving the Alpha Delta Kappa Scholarship will aid in this endeavor. Chemistry, along with its subtopics, is a wonderful major to select if one wishes to unmask the truth behind some of the most dynamic questions in the scientific community. My fascination in this field is driven simply by my inquisitive personality. Accordingly, the concept of studying the miniscule aspects of our environment, such as the quarks of a proton, is tremendously stimulating.

    The authors detail the learning objectives, statements, and summaries. The authors propose that the curriculum be changed to stress the need for a more practical collection of core themes and concepts in scientific education since science instructors generally believe that students are learning too many subjects, each of which is not sufficiently in-depth. There should be a decrease in the amount of subjects that students study. For instance, while giving students broad abilities that may be applied across both STEM and arts core areas, the curriculum should stress more extensively and plainly the essence of why and how science, mathematics, and technology link to other

    Evolving methodologies for curriculum and instruction are essential to improving how we educate. McMillian positions that essential to this is understanding the value of scientific inquiry. He explains, “the principles of scientific inquiry provide the foundation for conducting studies…analyzing educational problems, making decisions, and designing, conducting, reporting, and evaluating” (McMillian, 2016, p. 7) to provide significant benefits for engaging students and affecting achievement. Among the changing methodologies is the consensus that the use of STEM-education concepts are necessary to prepare students for 21st century skill-building. Subsequently, this has led to an instructional methodology that highlights math-centered curriculum, and the instruction of science and technology as independent of core content.
