  2. GK-12 Goals • Identify science needs in classroom • Create “thinkers” • Help students understand relevance and have better appreciation of science

  3. Labs Oobleck Lab • Students had to determine the state of matter of “Oobleck”, a non-Newtonian fluid using a problem-based approach • Students had to create and justify experimental approach • “Hands on” and critical thinking Separating Mixtures Lab • Students designed and carried out a physical mixture separation to separate a mixture into its original components Enzymes Lab • Students designed and conducted an original experiment to investigate enzyme activity

  4. Activities/Transfer Tasks • Cell Analogy Activity • Students created an original analogy to the cell and its organelles • Brainstorming ideas, creating poster, writing 1 page report • Periodic Table Organization • Students had to act as 19th century scientists and organize elements into groups • Games • Students were challenge to assess comprehension of previous lessons and review for exams

  5. Presentations/Discussions – “Physiology Corner” • Diffusion • Diffusion in physiological system • Examples: kidney and lung • Cell Cycle & DNA replication • Cancer relatedness to cell division and DNA replication • Students engaged in discussion, answered questions, short web clips

  6. Reflections • Deeper appreciation for challenges faced by high school science teachers • Better understanding of science needs and how to address them • Opportunity to serve as mentor for students
