Comparing Science and Engineering | NGSS Demystified
The prominent inclusion of engineering concepts throughout the NGSS presents a new challenge for many science educators. Comparing the Science and Engineering Practices explores how the practices are used in in these two fields. Participants will work in groups to compare and contrast the practices in a science versus engineering context. Each group will create a poster and share key points in a brief presentation. Participants leave this activity feeling more comfortable with the idea of bringing aspects of engineering into their science teaching.
