Hi #NGSSchat #NGSSslowchat

One powerful instructional strategy is to select anchor phenomena or topics for #SciEd units that involve the use of science & STEM knowledge and practices as part of social justice projects.

Here are some possibilities… https://twitter.com/WmGReed/status/1290640272976744449?s=20
In a recent @NSTA newsletter, @educatordeb & I shared these guiding principles for social justice centered #SciEd.

They can help focus #SciEd on political entanglements, troubled histories, human dignity & more just futures. #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat https://twitter.com/philiplbell/status/1274545650655346694?s=20
This #SciEd social justice project involves sensemaking & action on ecosystem restoration through dam removal. It intersects with energy production, histories of land dispossession, civics, cultural resurgence & ecosystem thriving. #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat https://twitter.com/nwtreatytribes/status/1283865628244353025?s=20
This #SciEd social justice project involves sensemaking & action about WIDESPREAD FLOODING happening in unprecedented ways. It intersects with climate change, failing infrastructures, human health & ecosystem degradation. #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat https://twitter.com/the_ecofeminist/status/1286979528653508611?s=20

The MASSIVE FLOODING currently happening in Bangladesh is another tragic example.

This #SciEd social justice project involves sensemaking & action about INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION. It relates to energy production, land dispossession, human health, capitalist development, environmental regulations & Indigenous rights. #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat https://twitter.com/philiplbell/status/1287396846491430913?s=20

Justice work can be about cultural resurgence. The @IndigenousSTEAM program engages in social & multispecies justice work by having intergenerational Indigenous groups relate extended kinship networks to socio-ecological decisions. #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat

Jason Foster's #SciEd social justice unit on ENVIRONMENTAL RACISM involves a local investigation leading to political action. Ss do spatial inquiry of pollution sources, biochem analyses of impacts & evidence-based communication. #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat

I've been in #NGSS groups working to integrate the social justice framework standards from @Tolerance_org into #SciEd investigations—which seems promising! #NGSSslowchat #NGSSchat
https://www.tolerance.org/magazine/publications/social-justice-standards

There are PD modules for the four-part framework:
