SBAR Educator Partnerships

Between 2018 and 2022, the SBAR Education Team partnered with classroom teachers and after school program staff to design and develop lessons, tutorials, and interactive activities that engage students in exploring relevant topics. We worked with 12 educators and 19 graduate students to create activities, lessons, career interview videos, and lesson tutorials for educators. SBAR educator mentors, all middle school science teachers, co-created and tested all materials in their classrooms.

All of the educational resources (lessons, activities, and informal science) generated through this process are available on our website.
