This course is designed for small communities of learners and is a hybrid of individualized tutoring and traditional instruction covering biology one content. Each section has no more than six learners which provide a foundation for strong relationships, social-emotional learning, and truly individualized instruction. These classes are specifically designed for the inclusion of neurodivergent learners including dyslexia-friendly font, explicit executive functioning skills instruction, and support for AAC users and through the use of inquiry and project based learning strategies grounded in real-world context.  

In this unit, students will understand the future of bears and the arctic by learning about speciation, common ancestors, extinction events, and how humans can protect endangered species to preserve biodiversity in ecosystems. 
This series is designed according to the Next Generation Science Standards organized by subject area.This curriculum is designed to allow students to develop skills to help them in traditional academic settings including high school or colleges such as note-taking and self-led learning. The class meets two days a week and homework reading, activities, and text-based discussions are completed on two additional weekdays. Students will complete a science notebook, a printable designed by the teacher, using graphic organizers and  traditional note-taking strategies.

學習目標

HS-ESS2-7:

課 1:
How do changes in climate affect bear species coming together for the first time
 We will introduce ourselves, develop classroom norms, and establish our grounding phenomenon the sighting of brown, black, and polar bears in the same area of Canada. We will begin working to understand each species of bear, how they are adapted to the arctic, and how they are impacted by climate change. For homework:  we will continue learning by reading quotes from the Inuivaluit people on the ice, animals, and changing conditions from a research study and understand the Arctic Ecoregions.

課 2:
Initial Models and Predictions
 Based on what we have learned so far in the unit, we will create initial models of the situation, make predictions, and generate a driving question board to guide our investigation throughout the unit. For homework, students will begin to investigate the differences and interactions between species of bears using data and videos.

課 3:
How and why are bear species interacting and why might brown bears dominate?
 We will conduct an investigation on thermoregulation in order to better understand key differences between polar bears and brown bears which might give brown bears an advantage in conflicts. For homework,  students will continue to learn more about this topic using readings and data and connecting to previous learning experiences about cellular respiration.

課 4:
How similar/different are the polar, brown, and black bears?
 We will investigate the differences between the species of bear using a stations activity involving, videos, pictures, scientific writings to motivate further investigation into how the bears are related. For homework, students will use data and a computer simulation to identify similarities in DNA and construct a tree model to understand that bears shared a common ancestor and that polar bears and brown bears shared a more recent common ancestor than they do with other species.

教師檔案
教師專業知識和證書
I have been working in science-based museums doing curriculum, programming, and education for students in a variety of settings for over fourteen years. I have been providing online science education for the past five years during which I have taken advantage of many professional development opportunities to learn about inquiry-based science education and teaching science online. I have completed a masters in museum education with a focus on science education at the University of Washington and was the first undergraduate student to ever be accepted to Vanderbilt University’s LEND program which includes a focus on genetics. 
I worked at the Creative Discovery Museum on a pilot program which involved biological science and dissections for home educated students. I helped college level students with a variety of backgrounds and support needs obtain content mastery. I led programming on a variety of inclusive science based summer camps including those partnering with the local zoo and aquarium.
During my graduate degree, I worked on projects with the Seattle Aquarium and Burke Museum on science education concepts. I collaborated on the design of virtual field trips which supported concept standards in earth and life sciences and applied science through museum evaluation.. Last year, many of my students achieved above the 90th percentile on nationally standardized tests.
At East Tennessee State University I completed the following courses receiving near-perfect grades and 
Integrated Stem for Education Majors, which I applied to the development and teaching of this course through the inclusion of math, technology and engineering principles and which prepares me well to teach them.
Concepts in Biology this course was designed for those wishing to teach Biology l and included teaching demonstrations, standards, and preparation for the Praxis exam for science concepts on which I scored in the 96th percentile.
Life in the Universe this course was an exploration of life science using an inquiry based model and which inspired my adaptation for this course. It covered a variety of life-science topics. Based on my performance in this course, I was nominated for nationally competitive research internships.
Science Education: Wildife Conservation: As part of a science education track, I took an honor’s section of this senior course focusing on wildlife conservation which included a variety of life science skills and strategies. I am a project Wild certified educator.
