McCormick Place, S501bc
Presenter(s): Katherine Shirey (University of Maryland: College Park, MD), Lindsay Wells (Madison Metropolitan School District: Madison, WI), Jordan Pasqualin (Jones College Prep: Chicago, NJ)
Come ready to “engineer-ize” one of your own labs. Knowles Science Teaching Foundation Senior Fellows share vetted engineering classroom strategies, sample projects, and rubrics. Join us and enhance your existing physics curriculum with content-relevant engineering practices.
Friday, March 13 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM
McCormick Place, W187c
Presenter(s): Bradford Hill (Southridge High School: Beaverton, OR), Heather Buskirk (Greater Johnstown School District: Johnstown, NY)
Four patterns are used to help students develop conceptual, graphical, and symbolic understanding of physics. Join us for hands-on inquiry and engineering that engages grades 9–12 students.

McCormick Place, S404 b/c
Presenter(s): Bradford Hill (Southridge High School: Beaverton, OR), Heather Haines (Community Charter School of Cambridge: Cambridge, MA)
Engage students in both engineering and science practices through embedding physics- or chemistry-driven inquiry to generate data to inform relevant engineering design decisions.
Saturday, March 14 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM
McCormick Place, S404 b/c
Presenter(s): Jordan Pasqualin (Jones College Prep: Chicago, NJ), Katherine Shirey (University of Maryland: College Park, MD)
Use short-duration engineering tasks to introduce engineering, provide multiple opportunities for students to practice the processes, and assess student growth in engineering and physics.
