| Abstract |
|
Elementary teachers have a tremendous impact on their students' future learning. Yet because of the high demands put on them, elementary teachers often demonstrate weak subject matter knowledge in science (Anderson \& Mitchener, 1994) and lack confidence in teaching science (Cochran \& Jones, 1998). Likewise, prospective and new science teachers face many challenges, including that they may hold little pedagogical content knowledge (van Driel, Verloop, \& de Vos, 1998). Thus new elementary science teachers need support, and it is critical to understand how best to provide that support. In our extended white paper (available at http://www.umich.edu/{\textasciitilde}betsyd) we present a design narrative describing {CASES} (Curriculum Access System for Elementary Science; available at http://cases.soe.umich.edu). {CASES}, a technology-mediated learning environment supporting new elementary science teachers as they learn to teach inquiry-oriented science more effectively, incorporates inquiry-oriented unit plans that are intended to be educative for teachers, as well as a personal online journal and an online teacher community discussion space. {CASES} is grounded in three main design principles that we present here.
