Science Inquiry Using the 5E Model Grades K-6

This online course for teachers is designed for K-6 educators who wish to explore how to develop their students’ deep critical-thinking skills through an inquiry approach to teaching called the 5Es. After being introduced to the 5E model of scientific inquiry, teachers will take a deep dive through each of the five phases — engagement, exploration, explanation, elaboration, and evaluation. Teachers will learn a variety of engaging instructional techniques and activities that are designed to encourage student exploration and stimulate students’ metacognitive skills. Teachers will learn a variety of strategies to elicit and develop students’ explanations of natural phenomena, including how to weave specific technology components into each phase of their 5E lessons so that students are further engaged in scientific inquiry.
