“The best part of today was having the opportunity to share ideas with other more knowledgeable and current educators. I was nervous about not being a ‘science-y’ person and not being up to date on best practices and philosophies concerning science and education in general. I was pleasantly surprised that I did feel comfortable talking in small and large groups about my thinking. It boosted my confidence a lot!” – Westborough Public Schools Teacher

“I enjoyed the group work especially – treating your educators like assets to the course is a huge strength! Thank you!” – Braintree Public Schools Teacher

“Phenomena based learning is something I have been grappling with this summer and participating in today’s class gave me some perspective both as the teacher and student.” – Berkley Public Schools Teacher

“The hands-on experience is always valuable but actually talking today about how to adapt things for particular classes/groups was also really helpful.” – 2021 STEM Week Challenge: Hurricane Heroes! Storm City, MA Participant
