Presentation Transcript
slide1. Friday morning Lab Manual discussion<br>
slide2. Goals for our team Update existing chapters
Revise hooks, background information, or questions
Improve scaffolding
Update datasets
Develop 2-3 new chapters
Define fundamental concepts
Locate relevant OOI data and design concept for interactive data visualizations
Write surrounding content to blend with the existing lab manual structure<br>
slide3. Lab manual existing chapters<br>
slide4. Labs 1-2 remix plan Existing activities Activities in Lab 1
Lab 1.1 – How are data about the ocean collected?
Lab 1.2 – Where are the OOI arrays located?
Lab 1.3 – How do you know where you are on the Earth?
Lab 1.4 – What types of science questions can the OOI answer?
Activities in Lab 2
Lab 2.1 – Time series
Lab 2.2 – Bathymetric charts
Lab 2.3– Bubble charts
Lab 2.4 – Station profiles
Lab 2.5 – Vertical sections Proposed new outline Lab 1 – Ocean technology
Lab 1.1 – How are data about the ocean collected? Add more stories of people and the technology in use
Lab 1.2 – Where are the OOI arrays located? Add MAB Pioneer
Lab 1.4 – What types of science questions can the OOI answer? Add/revise research examples enabled by OOI
Lab 2A – Geography and maps
Intro to latitude and longitude coordinates (revision of 1.3)
Bathymetric charts and seafloor features (revision of 2.2)
Bubble charts overlaid on maps (revision of 2.3)
Lab 2B – Introduction to ocean data visualizations
Time series (2.1)
Scatter plots
Histograms and box plots
Station profiles (2.4)
Vertical sections (2.5)<br>
slide5. Lab manual structure Outline of a typical chapter in your folder…we’ll look at this in more detail tomorrow
Each activity has
Hook
Essential background
Orientation to a data visualization
Interpretation of patterns
Application to content knowledge
Reflection<br>
slide6. Brainstorming Round 1 We will review three of the existing lab manual chapters
At each station, use sticky notes to comment on
Is the title catchy? Does there seem to be a hook that will interest students?
Are any important learning outcomes missing (from what you include in a relevant unit of your course)?
Is the order of questions and difficulty level appropriate for your students?
Could students work through the activities with minimal instructor intervention (e.g., using quick check questions for immediate feedback)?
What would you change or add?<br>
slide7. Brainstorming Round 2 Sit at a table with people that you haven’t worked with yet. We will pass posters with proposed topics.
Write a few initial thoughts about activities using (OOI) data that fit within the topic and would be useful in courses that you teach<br>
slide8. Jean – ideas and data examples<br>
slide9. Brainstorming Round 3 Choose one posterboard topic that you are most interested in discussing
As a team, develop a pitch for a lab chapter with 3-4 activities centered on data visualizations
