I was recently reading the Fall, 2023 issue of "The Science Teacher" a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.

In this issue, I read the article "The Use of Storytelling to Model NGSS Science and Engineering Practices" written by Adrienne Larocque and Anna Babarinde.

An important strand of three-dimensional learning in the Next Generation Science Standards is science and engineering practices. These practices replace the oversimplified "scientific method" often presented in science textbooks that bears little resemblance to actual scientific research. It requires time and effort to research and prepare accounts about people who model the Scientific and Engineering Practices. Joanna Haigh is one of those people.
