Project EDDIE Column in Oceanography

published Apr 23, 2020 8:43am

Dax Soule, Project EDDIE Co-PI, authored a column on EDDIE teaching modules featured in the upcoming June issue of Oceanography.

As an instructor, Project EDDIE has helped me introduce students to using data through guided inquiry and provided a structure for communicating the overarching theme that we are here to do hard things. The more I have incorporated data into my teaching, the more my classroom environment and the process of learning has evolved to resemble the actual scientific process.

The column details EDDIE modules' flexible "A-B-C" framework designed to facilitate open inquiry using real data.
