Ask questions about data to determine the factors that affect the strength of electric and magnetic forces.
Conduct an investigation and evaluate the experimental design to provide evidence that fields exist between objects exerting forces on each other even though the objects are not in contact.
Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system.
 Apply Newton’s Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving the motion of two colliding objects.
Plan an investigation to provide evidence that the change in an object’s motion depends on the sum of the forces on the object and the mass of the object.
Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object.

I have a masters in Earth Science science and I have taught integrated science at the middle school level as well as high school Biology, Wildlife Biology, and Zoology.
During the last two years, I have worked as a Science Specialist for a large school district in Utah, supporting teachers and administration in science education. 

0 - 1 每週課外時間
作業
頻率: 1-2 per week
回饋: 如所須
細節: Students may be required to complete 20-30 minutes of assignments, reading, activities, etc. per each live lesson depending on the flow of the class. 
Assessment
頻率: 3-6 throughout the class
細節: Assessments will be given as an indication of how well a student is learning the content and skills for the class and to help me continuously develop a better curriculum. Students will be assigned a number on a proficiency scale* that lets the student, parent, and teacher know how the student is doing. Each assignment will have a rubric attached to it letting the student, parent, and teacher know the expectations for the assessment. 

Assessments may be multiple choice, free response, modeling, or many other types. Most assessments will be taken in class, but some may be at-home projects. 

Assessment retakes and/or revisions will be provided and encouraged. 

*See Grading Policy for our Proficiency Scale
等級
頻率: 1 after class completion
細節: Grades will be provided by default to all learners. If students do not want their student graded or to not have access to their grades, please let me know.

Grades allow students, parents, and myself to understand where the student is at in their learning. 

Classwork will be graded using the outline below: 
0 - The students understanding is incomplete, incorrect, or missing. 
1 - The students understanding is complete and correct. 

Assessments will be graded using the outline below: 
0 - The student demonstrates no evidence of learning.
1 - The student demonstrates a minimal understanding of the concept.
2 - The student demonstrates a partial understanding of the concept.
3 - The student demonstrates a complete understanding of the concept.
4 - The student demonstrates an understanding of the concept and can apply it to a new situation. 

Students will be able and encouraged to retake assessments and redo classwork throughout this class. 

I will be referencing the OpenSciEd as well as the Utah Science Curriculum Consortium's SEEd Storylines and Jordan School District's (Utah) open-source curriculum. All are created by certified expert teachers and curriculum designers.
