The recent release of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) offers a new challenge and opportunity for science. Science practices are the social interactions, tools and language that scientist use as they construct, evaluate and communicate scientific knowledge. The effective integration of science practices into classrooms can better support a wide range of students, including those typically underrepresented in science, to develop greater scientific literacy.
Effective integration of science practices in classrooms requires instructional leadership to support that change. Instructional leaders can include a variety of different individuals including, but not limited to, school principals, district leaders, coaches and lead teachers. The ILSP team is developing tools to support instructional leaders in the science practices.
Vision
Our vision for supporting instructional leaders in their work with teachers to improve science teaching and learning stems from our approach to instructional supervision and science instruction.
Our orientation to supervision is rooted in the importance of strong instructional leadership. We seek to support leaders in their work with teachers as they promote a growth mindset, foster frequent and ongoing opportunities for feedback, sustain a commitment to teacher development over time, and engage in collaborative practices.
The ZoomSense project was started on 19 April 2020 as a response to our experiences of using Zoom for teaching.
A few people from the Faculty of IT at Monash University (and friends) got together to see if we could visualize what was happening in Zoom breakout rooms.
We are looking for help in developing this open source tool. So whether you're an academic, educator or developer, we'd love to loop you in!
There is now a thriving community around ZoomSense, where developers are using it as an infrastructure to rapidly develop augmentations to Zoom for teaching, media production and much more!
If you are a developer, head over to our GitLab documentation to get started.
Scientists have identified the part of the brain that teachers use to detect when their pupils do not understand what they are being taught.
Researchers found that a brain region called the anterior cingulate cortex picks up how mistaken students are.
They say their findings provide significant insight into the brain processes that allow a teacher to understand a student's learning.
They also found that other regions of the frontal lobe play important roles.
Most institutions say they value teaching. But how they assess it tells a different story. University of Southern California has stopped using student evaluations of teaching in promotion decisions in favor of peer-review model. Oregon seeks to end quantitative evaluations of teaching for holistic model.

Designer Emily Pilloton moved to rural Bertie County, in North Carolina, to engage in a bold experiment of design-led community transformation. She's teaching a design-build class called Studio H that engages high schoolers' minds and bodies while bringing smart design and new opportunities to the poorest county in the state.
עם פרוץ מגפת הקורונה, לשכת המדען הראשי יזמה והקימה חמש קבוצות עבודה שמטרתן הייתה להבין את האתגרים עמם מתמודדים צוותי ההוראה בהקשר של למידה מקוונת ולסייע בידם בהתמודדות זו באמצעות גיבוש עקרונות והמלצות מבוססי מחקר.
אל קבוצות העבודה הוזמנו חוקרים שמומחיותם רלוונטית למשימה ושיש באפשרותם לסייע בגיבוש מתווה פעולה בהיבטים שונים. הקבוצות עסקו בסוגיות פדגוגיות, רגשיות, חברתיות ומקצועיות שעולות במסגרת הלמידה המקוונת. האתר מאגד את מסקנותיהן של קבוצות העבודה בצורה אינטראקטיבית ונגישה לקריאה.
