Professional Development

Grasping Phenomenal Science


The goal of Grasping Phenomenal Science professional learning system is to support districts in the implementation of the Arkansas K-12 Science Standards including curriculum, instruction, and assessment.

The GPS system is a collection of professional development workshops that support the advancement of science educators along a professional learning continuum (seen below) from awareness, to transitioning, to implementing, and ultimately to sustaining the pedagogical shifts required for three-dimensional science teaching and learning. Where would you rate yourself? Awareness? Implementation? If you'd like to learn more, see the GPS session offerings below the continuum. All sessions are available through regional specialists at Educational cooperatives in your area throughout the year. Contact your specialist today to schedule a session!
