Reflecting on the Year and Looking Ahead to Fall

As we wrap up the 2019-20 school year, we invite you to reflect on your experiences teaching with PEER Physics.  We are intentional about hearing about your experiences and responding with professional learning and resources to meet your needs.  Please take a moment to respond to this short survey about your experiences this year and your needs moving into the 2020-21 school year.
End of Year Survey

3D Assessment Rubrics

Have you explored the 3D Assessment Rubrics this year? They can serve as a helpful tool for providing feedback to students about content and science practices. Rubrics can be found on the PEER Physics Website (Log In to the Teacher Resources and look under Assessment Resources for each chapter).

Do you have feedback? Email Shelly Belleau. We’d love to hear from you!

Celebrating Success

Advice from PEER Physics Instructors
 

"The transition to home learning has been challenging, but the support of the PEER network has helped enormously. Thanks to the online experiments and other resources, my students are continuing to engage in the evidence-based reasoning that is central to authentic science learning. I'm also thrilled that so many of my students have continued to collaborate by meeting up digitally and thinking through the activities together. It is amazing to see that they have come to value the collaboration that makes the PEER learning environment so meaningful for so many students."

 

Mike Ross is a PEER Physics Instructor at Centaurus High School in Colorado
