ALT Screenshot of slide that says... ACESSE Resource G Overview: Participants build capacity to identify the range of intellectual resources students use as they make sense of phenomena—after first exploring how equity and justice relate to culture-based approaches to pedagogy. http://stemteachingtools.org/pd/SessionG It includes a picture of the title slide of the linked resource, an image of a classroom situation with a young girl expressing her science model through gestures, and a pic of Jabari Johnson presenting a science rap at Rap Genius. Resources are in the linked resource Session G.

ALT Screenshot of slide that says: Reminder: All Sience Learning is Cultural “Human beings, no matter who we are, where we live, or what language we speak at home, develop our ways of knowing, talking, valuing, and acting as we live our day-to-day lives inside family and community. These ways of living are what is now understood as culture. Indeed, across communities, human beings make sense of the world in ways that are both similar and different.” —Bang, Brown, Calabrese Barton, Rosebery & Warren (2017, p. 35)

ALT Screenshot of a slide listing the 8 NGSS science and engineering practices that says... Learners Make Sense of Phenomena Through Science & Engineering Practices Curriculum and assessment often promote very narrow views of “what counts” as desired ways of speaking, knowing, acting, and valuing. We need to broaden what counts as learners make sense of phenomena—especially for multilingual students, students of color, and students from low-income communities.
