Education and Outreach team uses curriculum units to help students and teachers approach complex science ideas.
“Traditionally in classrooms, we begin by telling students how things work. A more powerful approach is to recognize what we don’t know, acknowledge gaps in our understanding and leverage those gaps to engage student curiosity,” said Deb Wolf, director of Education and Outreach (E&O) at Sanford Lab.
Want to learn more about the art of learning? Want to challenge what you think you know about scientific phenomena? Join us on Thursday, Jan. 9, as the E&O team presents “Deep Talks: More than meets the eye."
