Science
The 5 E lesson assignment (100 points)
Constructivism is a theory that says learners construct knowledge through activities rather than passively take in information. The format of this type of learning is referred to as the “5 E’s format” shown below:
Here is how to create an engaging 5 E lesson. Ignore the title that this is a math lesson since the description can apply to any subject. Yours will be “Science.”
Your assignment is to develop a two day lesson on some topic in SCIENCE. The lesson will be done in parallel; one for “face to face learning” & the other in a “remote learning” format. You can pick any subject in science for your age group, but do not just repeat the same activities that we did in this class. In other word, you can pick “magnetism”, but do not just Xerox the same activities we did on this subject.

What “E” |
Face/Face lesson |
Remote lesson |
|
Engagement (how are you going to engage & excite the students in wanting to learn this topic) |
|
|
|
Exploration (what type of activities are you having the students do in order to construct the concepts they need to know) |
|
|
|
Explanation (how will you facilitate an explanation of the concepts they needed to know including any misconceptions they may have developed) |
|
|
|
Elaboration (extention) (what applications can be derived from these concepts in helping to explain similar related science questions including extention activities the students can do.)
|
|
|
|
Evaluation (how are you going to properly evaluate what they learned. Multiple assessments are needed here.) |
