Teaching secondary science? Do you want to support your students to develop their scientific inquiry skills? And to help them be more self-directed and self-regulating as they develop their scientific knowledge?
This unique program combines a full day in-person workshop with online follow-up coaching to explore evidence-informed approaches to building student metacognitive capacity in science.
You will explore:
- What metacognition is and why it matters;
- How to model effective questioning as students make predictions and hypotheses;
- Using cycles of planning-monitoring-evaluation to build metacognitive skills; and
- The use of metacognitive language and worked examples to scaffold learning.
Aligned to the new Victorian Curriculum, this program is a must for science teachers looking to elevate their practice.
Supported by the Department of Education Strategic Partnerships Program and delivered by the Science Teachers Association of Victoria.
