CLEAN Survey 2011

Take out your Prior Conception sheet Try this: Answer each question Pick one of your answers Describe how you know what you know

What are some answers? Take home message: We can judge the basis for our conceptions (we hope).

Leiserowitz, 2010

Everyday experience Parents, friends Vicarious experience- movies Internet-blogs, websites School, textbook graphics “The greatest obstacle to new learning often is not the student’s lack of prior knowledge but, rather, the existence of prior knowledge” Angelo and Cross, Classroom Assessment Techniques, 1993 Help or hindrance? It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so. Mark Twain

Who are your students? Students probably did not learn geoscience in high school Undergraduate conceptions similar to secondary students and public Deep experiences for deeper learning Know thy audience

Is helpful for overcoming misconceptions Is effective with controversial topics Helps students understand complexity Emulates the process of science Can help take an abstract topic and make it relevant Group work can simulate role play or negotiations

Working with datasets, especially real-time or locally-derived Using your campus as a lab or local field trip Working in groups Role play or structured academic controversy Simulations or interactive visualizations (PhET or Google Earth) Cooperative learning Place-based learning Service learning Problem-solving Policy-related scenarios Jigsaws Working with models Lecture tutorials Think-pair-share Gallery walk
