WEBELIEVE Everyone can do science (science is accessible).
In meeting guests where they are in theirunderstanding of science and moving them forward.
In reflective practice.
Inquiry and hands-on engagement are essential toscience learning.
Structures must be created for youth to learn andpractice collaboration and innovation
Building relationships with individuals, groups and
organizations is essential to our success.

Summary Evaluation
3-year evaluation cycles for each module Front end (internal)
Course content and structural refinement High teacher satisfaction
Formative (internal) High levels of teacher satisfaction
Increased teacher comfort and confidence in science content Increased teacher confidence in effective science teaching practices
Summative (external) Increased understanding and usage frequencyof effective science
teaching practices Increased teacher content knowledge from novice to intermediate, and
intermediate to expert ISAT Initial Analysis
Small, but positive correlation between schools with teacherstaking an IQST course the same year as the science ISAT andhigher ISAT school scores
