Program Management System - 19th BCCE - Teaching to the National Science Standards: Science in the Personal and Social Perspectives

Symposium Title: Teaching to the National Science Standards: Science in the Personal and Social Perspectives
Descrption: Have your students ever asked “I’m not going to be a scientist, why do I need to know this?” This symposium will help high school chemistry teachers answer that question and make connections between what students are learning in the classroom to what is happening in the world today. Ideas will be linked to national standard F: Science in the Personal and Social Perspectives. Activities, labs, and readings that make connections between chemistry concepts and things students experience everyday will be shared. Presenters will also include suggestions on how to squeeze these important elements into an already full curriculum.
Program: 19th BCCE
Audience: High School
Organizer: Linda Weber
CoOrganizers:
Restrictions: Due to limitations with the facilities, "live chemical" demos are discouraged. Persons wishing to do "live chemical" demos should submit to the special Demo Grand Prix symposium.
