From Phenomenal Images to Phenomenal Lessons with HHMI BioInteractive Resources

This workshop will be offered Wednesday, June 28, 7:30–9:00 PM EASTERN. Note that the workshop time is in US Eastern time zone. Please verify the corresponding time in your local area.

When educators begin lessons or units with a Phenomenal Image as a hook, student questions follow. Using HHMI BioInteractive resources, participants will learn how to help students ask better questions and probe for deeper understanding. This workshop highlights examples of Phenomenal Images from a variety of core biology and environmental science topics. We will also provide the opportunity to explore lesson storylines that align with different phenomena, and for educators to share their experiences and insights from the classroom. By the conclusion of the workshop, participants will be able to select Phenomenal Images and understand how to place these images in their own storylines or units. A version of this workshop was previously offered by BioInteractive in 2022.
