We have recently implemented OpenSciEd Middle School Units in all of our middle school classrooms. This past summer, as the Science Instructional Coach in Colonial, I worked alongside the Activate Professional Learning Group to implement professional learning for the units in our district and state. In addition, I worked with many of the facilitators from Activate to provide professional learning opportunities in our district for our teachers. We are so thankful for the work and efforts of the Activate Professional Learning Facilitators. I love how this group of Activate facilitators along with Tracy, the lead of the Activate PL Group, created personalized learning opportunities for the instructional coaches and teachers in this state, and specifically for our district! The Activate group is friendly, personable, understands the workload and stresses of teachers, and adapts the professional learning to our needs. Thank you Activate for helping us along with our successful implementation of OpenSciEd Curriculum! Kimberly Mulvena, Science Instructional Coach Colonial School District My students are more responsible for their own learning. This curriculum changes my teaching style from teaching students content to teaching students how to think. Ms. Szelc Barnegat Township School District I can’t say enough about how wonderful the teacher’s professional learning was over the last three days! We chose the right teachers to help with the facilitation, and Activate Learning chose the right facilitators to help mentor the teachers and co-present. Thank you, thank you, thank you! It was like all the stars lined up. I loved hearing how much the teachers loved being in the training. Most of them were not getting paid to attend the training, and they were saying the teachers that didn’t come to the training are not going to be able to teach this in the fall. This group of teachers are going to be the teachers that rally for professional learning and this program. Tonyea Mead, Education Associate, Science Delaware Dept of Education Using OpenSciEd will mean that my students will have an authentic learning experience. The hands-on, inquiry-driven learning will deepen their knowledge and strengthen their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Ms. Polhemus Barnegat Township School District Activate Learning was able to recommend a customized OpenSciEd/ IQWST implementation. Both curricula share the same pedagogy and even some of the same authors, providing a seamless experience to teachers and students through Activate Learning’s Interactive Digital Platform. Activate Learning is a great support system for me, for the district, for the teachers, and for the kids. It’s a one-stop-shop for everything the we need to support our science program and science instruction in our district. Erin Babin, Ed.D., Curriculum Specialist Ascension Parish Schools, Louisiana Activate Learning supports NGSS and 3-dimensional learning by incorporating crosscutting concepts and science and engineering practices into the disciplinary core ideas through hands-on activities that promote inquiry. Alexandra Walocha, Middle School Science Teacher Freeport School District, IL Students really understand what they learn, and they remember it and can connect it to other concepts in the future. Teaching 7th they remember more from 6th, and teaching 8th, the connections to 6th and 7th are huge. IQWST Teacher Chippewa Valley Schools, MI If I compare the way I teach when I began teaching, which as the traditional way, I get the attention of my students more now. In terms of skills that they need for the 21st century, this is the best program to get our students to where we want them to be. Myrna Estrada, Active Chemistry Teacher King Drew...
