TEP-5100: Science: Discovery Teaching, Action Learning

This course introduces methods of teaching science within the context of ecology with a focus on fostering English language development (including SDAIE and ELD) particularly the development of students’ science-related language. Critical thinking, problem-solving, and problem-posing are at the center of unit and lesson planning. Candidates plan and implement balanced instruction with knowledge of how physical, life, and earth science content standards are achieved in conjunction with investigation and experimentation. Candidates design instruction informed by students’ development and language usage. Candidates learn to use literature, to teach students how science was and is learned–through hands-on experiment and discovery. Teaching students to protect and sustain ecological systems is considered central to the course.
