BECOMING SCIENTISTS THROUGH VIDEO ANALYSIS Workshop at eduLab@AST

To my MOE Physics Educator Colleagues,

BECOMING SCIENTISTS THROUGH VIDEO ANALYSIS Workshop at eduLab@AST will be conducted on 4 Feb 2015 at Academy of Singapore Teachers.

We have about 18 21 participants in the workshop. What I hope to see at the end of this workshop is the Physics teachers from different schools are passionate in learning to harness the power of using video analysis tool to understand the real world phenomena, analyse, demonstrate and enthuse their students in doing so as well.

If you miss this workshop and want to participate in future workshops or interested in collaborate with us, drop me a note. I will be most willing to take it up with you from here.

The flow of the workshop:

1.     (Tze Kwang, Ning, Kim Kia - 20 Minutes) Presenters will introduce the 8 Practices of Science Education adapted from the Science Framework for K-12 Science Education 2.     (Lawrence - 10 Mins) as the design principles behind this ICT-enabled practice. 3.     Break and Networking 20 mins 4.     (Tze Kwang, Ning, Kim Kia - 60 Mins) Presenters  will also demonstrate the effective use of Tracker, a video analysis tool, for analysis and interpretation of phenomena and 5.     (Tat Leong and Tze Kwang - 30 Mins)  in-depth model building. Participants will be oriented to the Tracker Shared Library where available models for physics concepts such as push and deceleration model.  6.     Reflect and Feedback 10 mins Objective:

·         By the end of the session, participants should be able to: ·         - Describe in detail at least one of the 8 practices of K12 science education framework ·         - Download, install and use tracker basic analysis ·         - Create at least one model in tracker for Practice 5 (mathematical and computational thinking) Follow Wee Loo Kang's blog post images of the workshop and outcome of the participants' feedback.
