Goal

The goal for purchasing models is to engage and differentiate to support visual and hands-on learning.  

 

Category

Class Furniture - Carpets, choral risers, transitional seating/desks, etc. 

 

What will be done with my students

Students will be using these models for the following reasons:

1. Use models to demonstrate scientific principles or theories clearly and visually.

2. Engage students in hands-on activities in cooperative groups.

3. Incorporate models as visual aids during lectures or discussions. This helps to reinforce verbal explanations and allows students to visualize what they are learning. 

 

Benefits to my students

Models provide a tangible representation of abstract concepts, making it easier for students to grasp complex scientific ideas.

1. Students can visualize processes and structures, enhancing information retention and recall.
2. Students will interact with models encouraging hands-on learning, and increasing student involvement and interest in the subject matter.
3. Working with models often requires teamwork, promoting communication and collaborative problem-solving skills among students.
4. Analyzing and interpreting models fosters critical thinking skills as students evaluate and draw conclusions based on their observations.
5. Models cater to various learning styles, allowing visual, kinesthetic, and auditory learners to engage with the content in ways that suit them best.
Real-World Applications:
6. Models can demonstrate practical applications of scientific principles, helping students understand the relevance of their learning.
7. Models break down complex systems into manageable parts, facilitating understanding of how different components interact.
Encouragement of Inquiry:
8. Students are more likely to ask questions and explore concepts further when they can manipulate and experiment with models.
