Science Method I introduces the Inquiry Based Method teaching technique using a rich hands-on science curriculum developed by the Astronomical Society of the Pacific. This course will provide K-12 teachers with a solid foundation to teach science in a simple and relevant way. Teachers will use a see-one-do-one-teach-one technique to raise confidence and effectiveness in teaching systems of science through the lens of astronomy. Teachers will develop inquiry skills to encourage their students to arrive at answers rather than using traditional memorization techniques. This course will provide several hands-on techniques to teaching fundamental space science concepts and provide ways to use readily available resources to reinforce science standards.
