Fwd: Modeling Instruction workshops in Chemistry and Physics

[Brad Wysocki]

Chemistry and Physics Teachers,

This is an AWESOME opportunity, fairly close to home.  Casey is one of the premier modelers in the nation!  I strongly encourage you to consider this professional development opportunity this summer.  Learning the Modeling Method of Instruction will change the way you view and teach science!
