Science Webinar Series | How Occam’s Razor Is Sometimes Dulled: The Story of Birdsong and Braininess Hosted by Dr. Stephen Nowicki | Webinar (7 pm EST)

Twenty years ago, Dr. Stephen Nowicki and his team proposed a hypothesis on birdsong that has since been supported by data from labs around the world.
The “developmental stress hypothesis” suggests that song serves as an indicator of male quality. Males that fare better in the face of developmental stress (1) can invest more resources on brain development, thus optimizing song learning, and (2) are thus likely to be the best mates in other ways.
These findings led to a second hypothesis that seemed so intuitive and simple, it just had to be true: better singers must, in general, be smarter. But experiments told a different story and the team’s hypothesis was crushed. Join Steve as he discusses the difficulty of giving up a prized hypothesis in the face of contradicting data.

HMH Webinar Series | Strategies for SEL Success Hosted by Nancy-Geer Hamilton | Webinar (7 pm EST)

Why do we become educators? Some of us go into teaching because we love children. Others feel passionate about a subject area and want to share their expertise. Nancy-Geer Hamilton wanted to make a positive impact on school culture. She developed a way of holding students accountable for their actions throughout the school year. Her management style proved so effective that other educators visited her classroom to see it in action. Nancy’s method is teachable and replicable, and she loves sharing it!

Science Webinar Series | Making Assessments Sparkle with Engineering Hosted by Dr. Cary Sneider | Webinar (7 pm EST)

Engineering tasks challenge students to use their science know-how to solve real-world problems. The result: tangible evidence of three-dimensional learning. You can learn how to develop such assessments by checking out the free online examples from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), also known as The Nation’s Report Card. These assessments are given to thousands of students across the country to check their science proficiency.
