  2. Welcome! Quick Poll: How do you use a claims and evidence approach in your classroom? • I’m still learning about it. • I talk about it in the context of how science works. • Students have to write claims and support them with evidence for some or all labs. • We have class discussion and writing activities that revolve around making claims and supporting them with evidence.

  3. What is an argument in science? An answer to a scientific question that uses data!

  4. Why Argumentation is Important • A way to improve both learning & engagement in science • Argumentation as scientific practice is connected to standards: • A framework for K-12 science education

  5. Why Writing is Important • Writing helps students learn • It forces them to organize their thoughts and find the relationships between ideas • Writing holds ideas in place long enough for students to think about them • Writing gets all students to participate • Writing helps you (as the teacher) spot misconceptions

  6. What is C-E-R? • C-E-R is a framework that provides scaffolding for students so that they can successfully participate in the argumentation process. • Components • Make a claim about the problem. • Provide evidence for the claim. • Provide reasoning that links the evidence to the claim.

  7. What does the research tell us? • Explanations are rarely a part of classroom practice • Students have difficulty using appropriate evidence and including the backing for why they chose the evidence in their written explanation • Students typically discount data if the data contradicts their current theory • During classroom discourse, discussions tend to be dominated by claims with little backing to support their claims McNeill, Lizotte, Krajcik, & Marx, (in press)

  8. Analyzing Student WorkTEI Curriculum • Circle claim, underline evidence, and box reasoning. • Make a claim about the problem • Provide evidence for the claim • Provide reasoning for your thinking

  9. Closer Look SAmples

  10. Group Work • Discuss answers with your group • Come to a consensus • Share out group’s findings

  11. Evaluate Writing with Rubric

  12. Scaffolding

  13. CER as a Summarizing Tool

  14. CER as a Test Taking Skill

  15. Reflection Where can CER be implemented in your class?
