New and Improved "Making Observations" Professional Learning Session

by , posted on 12:28 PM, January 16, 2021
The BEETLES Project (Better Environmental Education, Teaching, Learning & Expertise Sharing) has updated their professional development session Making Observations to be more inclusive and integrate indigenous perspectives on science.

The Making Observations PD session is intended to "help learners make careful observations while encouraging wonder and curiosity". The session includes a free leader guide, session handouts, student activity, and session video. 

This updated session was revised to "reflect previous feedback from Youth Outside and our deepened understanding of how BEETLES approaches can support equitable, inclusive, and culturally relevant learning experiences"

A more in-depth explanation of the revision can be found here.

Session materials can be found here.
