EMS 506 Methods of Teaching Science II
·¡²Ñ³§Ìý406/506 is the second course in a two-part sequence designed to prepare preservice science teachers to teach in secondary school settings (middle school and high school). For science teaching to be most effective, teachers and students need instructional materials that have been carefully planned, selected, organized, refined, and implemented to help achieve the goals set by state science standards. Therefore, this course emphasizes the design and implementation of coherent, student-centered learning segments grounded in the principles of Ambitious Science Teaching (AST), scientific practices from the NGSS, and research-based instructional strategies. Through targeted readings, collaborative planning, field-based microteaching, and reflective analysis, students will deepen their capacity to engage diverse learners in meaningful science learning experiences. While this course focuses on secondary (6-12) science teaching, many of the course topics are relevant to those seeking to work in informal or post-secondary science teaching positions.
