Whiteboarding can be defined by some as an effective classroom strategy that uses non-permanent learning surfaces to actively engage students in the learning process. This strategy provides students with ongoing evaluation and quick feedback that guides understanding and comprehension of subject matter. It also allows students to engage in a collaborative learning process with their peers enabling them to learn from each other. This session will introduce you to multiple methods on how you can use whiteboarding in your science classroom. Participants will experience how to use non-permanent learning surfaces in their science classrooms in a variety of ways. They will learn that whiteboarding is an effective student engagement activity that fosters student dialogue, engages students in a collaborative learning environment, models problem solving strategies and helps students achieve a deeper conceptual understanding of scientific concepts.
