This is the seventh in a series of 12 web seminars that focus on the disciplinary core ideas of the Next Generation Science Standards. Presenter Ramon Lopez, University of Texas at Arlington, begins by discussing the role of disciplinary core ideas within A Framework for K-12 Science Education and the NGSS. He then shares a definition of waves and provides a refresher on electromagnetism. He also talks about waves in relation to digital technologies. Jeff Nordine, San Antonio Children’s Museum, joins Dr. Lopez to discuss strategies for teaching about physical science concepts that answer questions such as “How are waves used to transfer energy and information?” and “How are instruments that transmit and detect waves used to extend human senses?”
