| Abstract | The seasons are often modeled for students using two spherical objects, one representing the Sun and one representing the Earth. Solely using this model, however, neglects a critical aspect of learning--how students actually see the world. This lesson challenges students to explore seasonal variations as they create and analyze sunrise/sunset graphs for different locations around the world. In the process, students gain an empirical understanding of how and why daylight hours change throughout the year at different locations and the impact that the number of daylight hours has on the seasons. The featured investigation provides a meaningful inquiry experience for students that incorporates three critical aspects associated with high-quality teaching and learning: effective questioning, data analysis, and performance assessments. (Contains 1 figure and 4 online resources.) (ERIC). |
