MnSTA will be hosting a virtual discussion of the book Science in the City by Bryan A Brown this summer. This book “examines how language and culture matter for effective science teaching,’’ and provides a great opportunity to reflect on the scientific language used with students. The meeting will include discussing ideas for how to help students become fluent in the language of science.
The discussion will be held via Zoom and is scheduled for Thursday, August 11th. We will have one meeting at 12:00 PM for members that are available for a daytime conversation; a second conversation is scheduled for 7:00 PM for members that are available for an evening conversation; feel free to choose the time that works best for you. The link for the Zoom meeting will be posted closer to the date.
The book can be purchased from a variety of sources, including the options listed below:
Harvard Education Publishing: https://www.hepg.org/hep-home/
Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/
Barnes and Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.
We look forward to you joining us for this discussion!
