  1. In inquiry, teachers orchestrate discourse, students evaluate their explanations, & get the science. It can be amazing! http://bit.ly/5nS0jq
  2. Playing with Tree of Life Interactive. http://bit.ly/14n7rm What a cool site for kids to use in making sense of vast amounts of data.
  3. @science_goddess I've been there. You're not crazy. I know exactly what you mean about it coming out of nowhere. It blind sides us.
  4. @stardiverr Thanks including me and for the leads on new Tweeps.
  5. Attendees at the Learning & Brain Conference in Cambridge, MA are using tag #lbrain for tweets. (via @kdwashburn)
  6. @science_4_all Ooo... that's what I was trying to say.
  7. @science_4_all I was just blogging something similar today. Great minds run alike? Mundane minds...?
  8. @kdwashburn No problem. It's a valuable too also... for me... as well... yeah!
  9. @kdwashburn I'm loving your Follow Friday recs. I want to follow them all!
  10. Blogging about what I wish I had said made me realize that inquiry should help students be life-long learners. http://tinyurl.com/ygrhzwt
  11. Ditto! @MrTRice_Science Congratulations! (via @stardiverr)
  12. In inquiry, students have to take the lead in explaining the data. To me, that's what separates inquiry from hands-on & makes it better.
  13. Inquiry requires a priority on evidence. In your lessons this week, how have your students had to focus on actual scientific data?
  14. Inquiry has to engage kids in science. The best tool I know for finding engaging science is Atlas of Science Literacy. http://bit.ly/19aDN5
  15. @cbrannon are you going for Perpetually Dull or the like?
  16. Talked to a reporter y'day. He didn't really understand inquiry until the centrality of evidence clicked with him. Then he saw its value.
  17. Lunch today w my long-term mentor, Tom Koballa. Always learn from him. It's good to see a man 30 years into his career still going strong.
  18. Long term treatment of HIV leads to premature aging? Listen or read:http://bit.ly/K5PEi http://bit.ly/42IitJ (via @sciencemagazine)
  19. To Retain New Learning, Do the Math: http://bit.ly/4if0q5 #education (via @kdwashburn)
  20. @cbrannon Nice! I'm instantly back in Athens. (Heading there on Friday. My son is going to their Scholars Day. Might get a Dawg out of him!)
