 BSCS Science Learning offers several professional learning programs to support the effective implementation of
 
 BSCS Biology: Understanding for Life
 
 . For districts that do not have enough high school teachers to justify bringing BSCS Biology professional learning to their site, we provide Registration-based Teacher Institutes with the same content as our District-based Teacher Institutes.
 
 
 BSCS invites individuals or small groups from your school or district to attend one of our two-day or one-day/two half-day, virtual institutes. A minimum of five attendees is required to host these institutes.

 What Educators Are Saying About BSCS Biology
 
 
 
 &ldquo;
 
 Anchor phenomena is different for me, and my students are really engaging with it. I&rsquo;m seeing a shift in student responses like &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know&rdquo; and &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t care&rdquo; to students continuously wanting to build on their initial ideas and come up with more complex questions.
 
 &rdquo;
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Precious Nwazota, high school teacher in California
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 &ldquo;
 
 BSCS Biology professional learning has helped our teachers think about their instruction in a very different way. Teachers see their students more as young scientists with lots of knowledge that they&rsquo;re bringing into class. When I walk into our biology classrooms, they are not the same classrooms that they were two years ago.
 
 &rdquo;
 
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 Alejandro Lopez, assistant principal in California
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 &ldquo;
 
 It would benefit any group to have a grounded introduction of the curriculum and materials in order to understand the full scope and intentions of the text. BSCS Biology goes beyond the traditional textbook and it is critical that educators know what resources are included as well as the intentional strategies embedded along the way. Take the time to review and practice these strategies in order to support staff and students in new ways.
