  • 29. The 5E Model
    Jan 3 2024

    You are listening to episode 32 of the ready, set, science podcast. On today’s show, we are talking all about the 5E model and how to use it in your science classroom. The 5E method of learning is a pedagogical framework commonly used in science education to engage students in the learning process through a series of phases that encourage active participation and critical thinking. The 5E model stands for Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate. Each of these phases represents a key step in the learning process and is designed to help students build a deep understanding of scientific concepts.

  • REPLAY: Failure IS an option
    Dec 20 2023

    Many people have a complicated relationship with failure, including me! How do we move away from teaching so kids can “get the right answer” toward teaching to  understanding the process? Why are we in a society where failure is a “4 letter word” and how do we get kids to break the cycle of always having to be right? Let's talk about making failure our FIRST ATTEMPT IN LEARNING.

  • REPLAY The Scientific Method is Dead…now what?
    Dec 13 2023

    For generations, the scientific method has been the “go to” method for teaching real science in the classroom. But what it has really done, is take out the problem solving and thinking processes that are at the heart of science exploration.  In this episode we will explore the scientific method’s flaws and discuss better methods to help our students understand science for the real world.
