NYSSLS Biology Refresher Plus 2 **IN PERSON** Presented by Glen Cochrane – 8:30-2:30pm

Audience: Regents Biology teachers and science leaders Are you implementing the NYSSLS-based Life Science: Biology? Wondering if it is different from Living Environment? This workshop will serve as a refresher for those trying to put the PEs, SEPs, DCIs, CCCs, and phenomenon-based learning into context as you work on a curriculum that is aligned with how students must learn for better retention and be prepared for how they will be assessed on the new Biology regents exam. The workshop’s focus is on participants continuing to develop a deeper understanding of how Regents Biology must use a New York State Science Learning Standards (NYSSLS) based curriculum. Students are expected to learn science by engaging in the practices and skills of scientists and engineers. There is content to learn, but they will be expected to apply that content to novel phenomena, scenarios, and problems. They will construct their own understandings and build the capacity to demonstrate their knowledge in context with much less memorization of science facts. **B.Y.O.D. (Bring Your Own Device) – Participants should bring a fully charged laptop, Ipad, or tablet to download resources and access websites throughout the workshop.
