Workshops 2014

Modeling Workshops for Summer 2014

Introduction

Modeling Workshops are listed alphabetically by state. Most are three-week summer workshops that thoroughly treat the pedagogy and content for a high school physics, chemistry, physical science or biology course. Content is reorganized around basic models to increase its structural coherence. Participants are supplied with a complete set of course materials and work through activities alternately in the roles of student or teacher, as they practice techniques of guided inquiry and cooperative learning. At many workshops, teachers receive stipends and/or tuition waivers, instructional materials, and sometimes housing at reduced rates. (State-funded workshops provide these only for in-state teachers.) Generally, workshops use whatever probes and interfaces are available at the site.

Are you considering hosting a Modeling Workshop?  Click here for an outline of host institution responsibilities. Please note: AMTA strongly recommends workshops that are three weeks in duration because these provide teachers the opportunity to practice the interactive engagement techniques crucial to the successful implementation of Modeling Instruction in the classroom. Two-week workshops can also be effective, provided academic year follow-up support is available. Professional development experiences that are shorter in duration are not considered Modeling Workshops. Such “Modeling Lite” or “Introduction to Modeling” type sessions afford participants the chance to explore aspects of modeling instruction. However, we believe they provide teachers neither sufficient time to develop a deep understanding of the pedagogy nor the opportunity to practice the listening and questioning skills that allow one to successfully implement the approach.

Free 1-year trial membership in AMTA! Participants in full workshops this summer are eligible for a free 1-year trial membership in AMTA. Your workshop leader will provide you details on how to enroll. At the end of the year you will have the option of renewing your membership. Follow this link for some details.

Ask your school district to pay for your Modeling Workshop. The document HowGetFinancialHelp from Jane Jackson offers advice on getting financial help from your district or other sources.

Workshops by State

Below is a partial list of workshops. More will be added later, as information becomes available.  Some workshops are contingent on funding and sufficient enrollment to make them cost-effective.

  1. Hello, I am interested in participating in a biology modeling workshop. I currently teach in New York City. The only two biology programs that I have seen on your website will be held in Virginia and Illinois. Am I eligible to go to these trainings? I am from Illinois so this one would not be too difficult to attend.

    1. To David and all other Modelers,

      You can attend any Modeling workshop in any state, as long as the workshops are open for out-of-state teachers. You were looking for biology workshops. In Illinois, the workshops is open to everyone and you can contact Jim Stankevitz for more details.

      In Virginia, the one week introduction is open to everybody as well. Since the workshops is Virginia are only one week long, the experience you will get is different than what you would get from a 3 weeks Modeling workshop. Please contact Joe Mahler for more details.

      We continue to work to add more Modeling workshops to the list, please check the listing on the AMTA website on a regular bases for updates.

      Wendy

          1. At this moment, no biology Modeling workshops have been scheduled for July. The website’s list is updated constantly, so please check it regularly.

    2. Would it be possible that in addition to a state be state list of workshops you also have the workshops sorted by content area? Say for example you want to find only chemistry workshops and don’t care where they are it takes a while to dig through the state by state list.

      1. Hi Judy,
        At this moment, the sorting you would like to see is not an option, however, we are about the launch our new website where the search for workshops can be done by location or subject. For now, chemistry I workshops are offered in AL, AZ, CA, FL, GA, IL, KS, ME, MI, NY, OH, TN and IN . Indiana offers one-week workshops and this year they will offer chem I and II

  2. I would like information on one week modeling workshops in Virginia for the summer of 2014. I tried to email Joe Mahler but the message permanently failed.

  3. Hello, everyone.

    I teach high school chemistry and algebra. I am a interested in attending a workshop this summer that is open to out of state teachers. Which workshops would be the best ones to go to?

    1. Hi Kelsie and others,

      Chemistry Modeling workshops will be offered in many states; AL, AZ, GA, IL, KS, ME, OH, TN, and VA.

      If you have never taken a Modeling workshop, it’s a good idea to take Mechanics or physical science first. Here, besides getting a grounding in core concepts of all the sciences, you will learn what Modeling Instruction is, where it originated, and the classroom practices, which are very different from the traditional classroom structure.

      Mechanics Modeling workshops are offered at almost all locations.

      We are constantly updating the list of workshops for the summer of 2014; please, visit the site regularly.

  4. It’s very good to see that the AMTA executive board president is co-leading a workshop on NGSS and modeling. Do you have any additional information on this workshop such as number of days or target audience? Thanks.

  5. At this moment, we do not have details on the workshop; you can always contact Earl Legleiter.

  6. I have recently retired and am working in an advisory/support capacity in my school district. We are a tiny district – have had a lot of turnover – and a bare-bones (sub-minimal in my view) science teacher – with a desire by our school board to build science. I want to be able to facilitate attracting teachers who have modeling experience or who are willing to become trained – so that we can use that as a commonality for collaboration among science teachers in our district. I was introduced to Modeling many years ago as a PTRA – but have struggled to bring it to our district in a sustainable way.

  7. I am interesting in modeling, but am not free in July and August, is there anything in the NYC area during the school year? Any resources, especially in biology, that might be useful on the internet?

    Thanks much.

  8. I am looking for an advanced modeling workshop to attend. Are there any other than the one in Ohio? Will more be posted to this site before summer?

    1. Jolyne,
      Yes, several other advanced Modeling Workshops will be held in summer 2014. All are in physics, and all have a prerequisite of a mechanics Modeling Workshop that is about 90 contact hours (i.e., that includes all 9 mechanics units). I list them, in order of start date.
      Wichita, KS: June 9-26. Waves & Fields. Earl Legleiter, leader.
      Arizona State University: June 9-27. e&m. Michael Crofton, leader.
      Arizona State University: June 9-27. Light. Bill Edelbrock, leader.
      Wheaton-Warrenville S HS (near Chicago): June 16-27: e&m. Jim Stankevitz, leader.
      Florida Intl. University: June 30-July 18. Waves/light. David Kirkpatrick, leader.
      New York City: July 21-Aug. 8. Light. Mark Schober, leader.
      Buffalo State College (NY): late July – early Aug. electricity.

  9. I am interested in attending a mechanics modeling workshop, but the ASU workshops are held before our semester ends. The later workshops are too far for me to travel. Do you know if there are any plans to offer mechanics workshops in Oregon or Washington in the future? Other teachers at my school are also interested in this possibility.

    1. Hi Laurel,

      The workshops at Cal Poly start later than the ASU workshops, so that may be an option. Traveling options to California do not have to be very expensive,using the Greyhound may be an option.

      In the past, workshops were offered in Oregon and Washington. In Washington, we have a person willing to lead but he would need an organizer. Would you school and/or district be interested in hosting Modeling workshops for the summer of 2015? AMTA will help you to organize it.
      Please contact me at wendy@modelinginstruction.org to discuss this.

  10. Can you please let me know the states and dates where biology workshops will be. I live in PA. Thankyou.

    1. Biology workshops are available at the following locations:
      Illinois: June 16-27
      North Carolina: July 7-24, depending on funding
      Ohio (Bowling Green): July 14-25

      Professional development using modeling and/or introduction to Modeling:
      New York (Millbrook) no date set yet
      Virginia: June 23-27
      Indiana: July 7-11
      California: June 16-27

      For more information, go to the individual listing of the workshops.

      1. Maura Lockett was inquiring about biology Modeling workshops. The dates for the NY Millbrooks workshops has been set and it will be from July 28 to August 8. Angela Gard, experienced biology Modeling workshop leader, will lead the workshop with Millbrook’s one Christine Dilley.
        Costs for the workshop are $650 for commuters, and $1100 with room included.

  11. Hi Connie,
    The majority of the curriculum of the Modeling Workshops is geared toward high school, however, the pedagogy can be applied to all grade levels. I completed my MNS degree in STEM for Middle School at Arizona State University, and all courses used Modeling Instruction. My understanding is now so much deeper than before and the methods of using Modeling is no different fro teachers as it is for any level of students, in my opinion.

  12. do you have any workshops in Texas, or know of any. I am a new teacher of only 4 months and i would love to take apart of workshops in my area Dallas.

  13. I will be teaching physical science for the first time in the fall. I’m interested in doing the modeling curriculum with my students, but we do not have a physical science workshop here in Michigan. I was wondering if I would be better prepared attending a one week workshop for physical science out of state, or attending one of the 3 week physics or chemistry workshops in Michigan? I can’t do 3 weeks out of state. (I am a biology person, so not strong in physics or chemistry.) Help??

    1. I would suggest you attend one of the 3 physics Modeling workshops offered in Michigan. You may be able to use some of the units and will have a much better understanding of Modeling Instruction.
      When you attend a Modeling workshop and become an AMTA member you will have access to the complete Modeling Curriculum on the website and on the wristband which you will receive as a member, and you will be part of the very active Modeling community.

    1. The contact information of Mike Gallagher is on the website and here is a link to the Michigan Modeling workshops: mimodelinginstruction.org

  14. Is college credit (grad or undergrad) available through a local university for completing any of the workshops?

  15. Hi,
    I’m interested in learning more about Modeling Instruction. Can you please send me information on chemistry sessions that will be held this fall in the NYC area.
    Thanks,
    Bernadette Black

    1. I apologize for the late response; the Modeling™ workshops in New York City started this week. All the information on all Modeling™ workshops is available on this webpage.

  16. I am wondering about this class, which is listed above:

    Fort Hays State U
    Dates: TBA
    Implementing NGSS guided by modeling principles
    Leaders: Paul Adams, Earl Legleiter

    Is it going to run in the yet with int the end of July or first part of August?

  17. I stumbled across modeling instruction and am interested in attending a workshop. When do you expect to have a schedule for upcoming workshops? Also, I noticed that the workshops are held in the summer. Do you offer any during the school year? Thank you for your time.

    1. Most Modeling Workshops are offered at the same location each summer. Thus feel free to peruse the list on this webpage, and email a workshop organizer and ask him/her what Modeling Workshops will be offered at their site next summer. Of course, it sometimes depends on funding; sites apply for grants, and they won’t know if they get funded until winter or spring.

      Also, visit the PhysTEC website occasionally, to see what locations are added for next summer. Specifically, visit this URL
      http://www.phystec.org/pd/?set=Modeling/
      Already posted for 2015 are detailed descriptions & dates of 4 Modeling Workshops at Arizona State University, one in Hong Kong, and two at Milbrook School in New York.

      During the year: This fall, a mechanics Modeling Workshop will be offered in Chicago, at the University of Illinois. In spring semester, Arizona State University always holds a Modeling Workshop. These are “methods” courses, primarily for pre-service teachers but open also to in-service teachers.

      Would you like your school to host a Modeling Workshop? If so, ask your principal or district science coordinator to contact Wendy Heheman: Wendy@modelinginstruction.org . Or ask a supportive faculty member at a nearby college to host a Modeling Workshop, and have them contact Wendy. Wendy gives support for all Modeling Workshops.

  18. I attended a one week Chemistry workshop in VA and have developed a pilot for my school to convert over the chemistry department. I am interested in more advanced training and I wonder if there are any grant or scholarship opportunities to help with the financial commitment for travel and registrations to workshops that are not local to me.

    1. The ACS Hach Professional Development Grant was started last year, and I was able to get one to attend Modeling Chemistry training. Might be worth a try.

  19. I attended a 3 week course in Modeling Chemistry in Aug 2014. I have been teaching using the modeling framework this year. Is there a second course that goes into the more advanced topics like equilibrium?

  20. Hi,
    I am interested in a AP Physics Modeling workshop. Please could you let me know whether there will be one in Hongkong or nearby areas in 2015. I teach AP Physics at International Christian school HK.
    Thanks
    Ravi Lall
