11:00 amEvaluating a Kinematics Assessment – Rich Slesinski and Justin King

Attendees will use an 11-point 3D Assessment Screening Tool to evaluate the final kinematics assessment created using the NYSSLS/NGSS guidelines. They will also explore computer simulations that allow students to discover the differences between distance and displacement and average speed and average velocity.

The presenters will share individual lesson plans structured around the 5E student-centered model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate). A video will be shown of students testing their solutions to the anchoring problem, in which they will predict where two objects moving toward each other will meet. Participants will leave with practical tools and insights to support their own development of the NYSSLS/NGSS curriculum.
