Workshop Agenda

Overview

This in-person professional learning experience is an introduction to how to use Argument-Driven Inquiry instructional materials in science. Dr. Sampson will guide participants through an ADI investigation or design challenge so they can experience firsthand what students will do inside the classroom. The teachers will deepen their subject knowledge and fine-tune how they interact with students, which in turn, helps them develop expertise in ways to promote and support ongoing changes in student thinking.
