K12Science Podcast: Seven Tips for Science Instruction

I was recently reading the November 6, 2025, NSTA Blog, a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.

I read the blog entry "Seven Essential Tips for Modern Science Instruction" written by Jason Strohl.

The Seven Essential Tips are:

1. Focus on Science and Engineering Practices Over Content Delivery

2. Connect Science to Real-World Problems in Students' Communities

3. Embrace Crosscutting Concepts and Interdisciplinary Connections

4. Be Intentional About Technology Integration

5. Develop a Systematic Approach to Evaluating Instructional Materials

6. Prioritize Student Curiosity and Wonder

7. Scaffold Support for Science Learners
