Small Pond Science: Updating pedagogy for the mobile phone era

Small Pond Science: Updating pedagogy for the mobile phone era. “When I last taught this lab, shortly after the start of the Obama administration, it wasn’t entirely routine for students to whip out their phones to look up information. I designed the lab for students to consult materials, with some self-directed inquiry, to be able to answer the questions. The lab provided context, of course, but I wanted them to use textbooks and other available reference material, to piece things together. I thought it worked rather well. Students were compelled to think critically about some concepts and had to seek out new information to answer the question being posed. That’s good, right?” Big thanks to Jonathan B. for sending me this link.
