from a partnership of teachers and scientists, they address both the needs of scientists to share their research broadly while developing their communication skills, and of teachers who need resources that address education reform and teach science in an authentic way.</span></strong></em></h3> <hr /> <hr /> <h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #333333;">Data Nuggets are designed and developed by Elizabeth Schultheis and Melissa Kjelvik from Michigan State University. They have been under development since 2011 and originated through conversations between science teachers and graduate students during the NSF GK-12 project “<a style="color: #333333;" href="http://kbsgk12project.kbs.msu.edu" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">New GK-12: Using the STEM Dimensions of Bioenergy Sustainability to Bring Leading-edge Graduate Research to K-12 Learning Settings</a>”. This unique opportunity for collaboration between teachers and scientists led to the creation of teacher-inspired resources. Teachers shared that they were lacking educational resources that helped their students practice working with real, messy data like that collected during classroom inquiry-based projects. Graduate students in the sciences, not surprisingly, have lots of practice working with messy data and surprising results. Through this collaboration, Data Nuggets were created to <strong>bring real data from current and ongoing research into the classroom</strong> and take students through the process of science, from the inception of ideas to the analysis and interpretation of data.</span></h3> <div id="attachment_1258" style="width: 335px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a style="color: #333333;" href="http://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/K12.teachers.KBS_.LTER_.0003.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-1258"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1258" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-1258" src="http://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/K12.teachers.KBS_.LTER_.0003-300x225.jpg" alt="Melissa Kjelvik and teacher Connie High working together to collect scientific data." width="325" height="243" srcset="https://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/K12.teachers.KBS_.LTER_.0003-300x225.jpg 300w, https://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/K12.teachers.KBS_.LTER_.0003-1024x768.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 325px) 100vw, 325px" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-1258" class="wp-caption-text"><span style="color: #333333;">Melissa Kjelvik and teacher Connie High working together to collect scientific data.</span></p></div> <h3><span style="color: #333333;">From 2013-2015, Data Nuggets were funded with seed grants from the <a style="color: #333333;" href="http://beacon-center.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">NSF BEACON Center Study of Evolution in Action</a>. These funds allowed us to greatly expand Data Nuggets as a resource, with activities now being developed in response to workshops held across the BEACON consortium. The funding has also provided opportunities to collaborate with science educators at Understanding Science (UCMP), National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis (NIMBioS), and <a style="color: #333333;" href="http://bscs.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Biological Sciences Curriculum Study (BSCS)</a> to further refine the template and to align Data Nuggets with current science standards and reform, making them easier to integrate into existing curriculum.</span></h3> <h3><span style="color: #333333;">Data Nuggets are currently funded by a 4-year NSF DRK-12 grant, awarded to MSU and BSCS in 2015, to conduct a research study to evaluate the effectiveness of integrating Data Nuggets into science curriculum. This research will help to determine whether these short activities can increase the mathematical skills of students and their ability to think scientifically and support claims using data.</span></h3> <div id="attachment_384" style="width: 254px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-384" decoding="async" loading="lazy" class=" wp-image-384" src="http://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/ERH-Marcia-225x300.png" alt="Liz Schultheis working with teachers to collect herbivory data." width="244" height="325" srcset="https://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/ERH-Marcia-225x300.png 225w, https://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/ERH-Marcia-768x1024.png 768w, https://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/ERH-Marcia.png 966w" sizes="(max-width: 244px) 100vw, 244px" /><p id="caption-attachment-384" class="wp-caption-text"><span style="color: #333333;">Liz Schultheis working with teachers to collect herbivory data.</span></p></div> <h3><span style="color: #333333;">We will continue to develop and revise Data Nuggets to help teachers bring sets of data from graduate student research into their classroom, and help students become comfortable working with messy data and unexpected results. Data Nuggets have gone through an iterative development process, where materials developed by scientists were used in the classroom and modified based on teacher and student experiences and feedback. We continue to present Data Nuggets at national and local education conferences where teachers and science educators can provide feedback on the structure and content of each activity. Our innovative and iterative development approach has led to a product that teachers and students find easy to work with and integrate into existing curriculum.</span></h3> <h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #0a7440;"><strong>For more information on Data Nuggets, see our paper in the American Biology Teacher: <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a style="color: #0a7440; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://datanuggets.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Schultheis-and-Kjelvik-2015.pdf">Click here for a PDF!</a></span></strong></span></h3> </div></div> </article> <aside id="sidebar" class="sidebar widget-area"> <div id="call-to-action-2" class="widget call-to-action"><div class="widget-wrap"><div class="cta-main"><h4 class="widget-title widgettitle">Site Navigation</h4> <ul class="cta"> <a href="http://datanuggets.org/about-nuggets-2/"><li class="cta1">New to Data Nuggets?</li></a> <a href="http://datanuggets.org/about-nuggets-2/content-and-graphing-levels/"><li class="cta2">For Educators</li></a> <a href="http://datanuggets.org/for-scientists-and-researchers/"><li class="cta3">For Scientists</li></a> <a href="http://datanuggets.org/search-current-data-nuggets/"><li class="cta4">Find a Data Nugget</li></a> <a href="http://datanuggets.org/making-your-own-nugget/"><li class="cta5">Make your own Data Nugget</li></a> <a href="http://datanuggets.org/permitted-uses/"><li class="cta6">Permitted Uses</li></a> </ul></div></div></div><div id="text-3" class="widget widget_text"><div class="widget-wrap"><h4 class="widget-title widgettitle">Contact Us</h4> <div class="textwidget"><p>Please email Liz (eschultheis@gmail.com) or Melissa (kjelvikm@gmail.com) with any questions you might have.
