(2) Pivot Interactives  - 2

Join  Pivot Interactives 676,   Complete a second Pivot Ineractives activity from the preceding list.  nclude a  pdf (print as pdf) or screen captures of your work.

(3) Create an Online investigation 

Create an online investigation that requires students to record, analyze, AND interpret data from pre-recorded movies of phenomena (e.g. Pivot Interactives) or simulations of real-world phenomena (e.g. PhET, Gizmos).  Your investigation should require students to create a model or explanation of the real-life phenomena.  You may use these videos from Pivot Interactives, or videos of your choice in the creation of your investigation.

Here are a couple of examples of online investigations made in this way:

• Photosynthesis investigation) before making your own.

• Simulated experiment of wave phenomena.

(4) Case Studies 

Complete one of the available STEM Case studies.  Include artifacts showing you have completed the study, and a couple of paragraph describing the the benefits of using case studies in teaching science.   ( go-el.com/join, enter QKJTMT )
