Web Seminar 1: Introduction to the NSTA Sensemaking Tool

Discover the purpose, design, and structure of the NSTA Sensemaking Tool and how it reflects current research on the instructional shifts needed to teach three-dimensional science. Participants will explore how the tool supports lesson development using a single-point rubric design. Participants will also consider how using research-based criteria to identify opportunities to strengthen student sensemaking supports professional learning.
