Explore how effective note-taking supports student sense-making when it is treated as an ongoing process rather than a finished product. Using research-based strategies, we will examine how pausing instruction, scaffolding notes, and intentionally supporting revision and collaboration help students deepen understanding of scientific concepts. Teachers will leave with practical, classroom-ready approaches for designing note-taking routines that promote thinking, discussion, and learning.
The visual non-glossary is a resource for science teachers in Prosper ISD. This session will pair the visual non-glossary along with high impact instructional strategies to help promote critical thinking, collaboration, and metacogntion.
Turn your students into Feedback detectives to increase metacognition and deeper learning for student growth. This session will cover the research behind different types of feedback, how to increase student ownership of feedback, and practical feedback processes to implement with your students.
