Work of Teaching Science: Scientific Models & Representations

This part of the work of teaching science refers to selecting and evaluating models and representations in science. Models and representations should be aligned with learning goals and provide evidence of relevant scientific phenomena. It also involves engaging students in model-based practices such as creating, using, revising, and evaluating scientific models. Moreover, it includes evaluating student understanding of models and understanding of scientific phenonena through the use of models.
