Winter Inquiry Institute 2015

Did you miss the Summer 2015 Inquiry Institute? Have no fear! We are having a winter edition.

This three day institute runs 9:30 A.M. to 3:30 P.M. daily from Monday, December 21 to Wednesday, December 23. Breakfast, coffee, and light snacks will be provided, with a 1 hour lunch break on your own. Using hands-on experiences and reflection, the Winter Inquiry Institute will give teachers a foundation in science inquiry. Participants will examine different approaches to hands-on learning, explore NGSS practices, engage in a full scientific inquiry, and consider ways to include inquiry in their own classrooms. This workshop is based upon the Fundamentals of Inquiry professional development program developed by the Exploratorium, and incorporates the Next Generation Science Standards.

This is a three day program which requires registering to reserve your spot- space is limited!

The Fleet Inquiry Institute is the teacher professional development branch of the Education Department at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center. Contact Jess Mata at t3@rhfleet.org for more information.
