Raquel Antón @aprendociencias.bsky.social · 05/04/2026Una interesante reflexión para el #claustrovirtual. Merece la pena dedicarle un rato para leerlo y reflexionar sobre lo que @cmooreanderson.bsky.social expone en este post. 132
Reposted by Raquel AntónChristian Moore-Anderson @cmooreanderson.eurosky.social · 05/04/2026Many people ask for videos on how I teach. Here's a first! A recording of a presentation I gave at a conference about how I develop stock and flow models *with* students. To accompany the video, I wrote a whole new blog post (link in the post) christianmooreanderson.com/how-i-teach-...christianmooreanderson.comHow I teach blood glucose homeostasis – Christian Moore AndersonBlood glucose homeostasis is a classic concept for teaching about feedback loops that drive stability. But, like all of biology, there are so many new structure 4121

Reposted by Raquel AntónChristian Moore-Anderson @cmooreanderson.eurosky.social · 13/02/2026The other day, @agittner.bsky.social prompted me to describe how I would teach a concept. I found it almost impossible. And, it had me wondering why, a full time biology teacher, head of biology, & someone who has written so much on biology education, couldn't do it easily. Here's my answer 🧵 3197

Reposted by Raquel AntónChristian Moore-Anderson @cmooreanderson.eurosky.social · 12/12/2025My favourite model this week has been: IB Biology: Translocation It took us two lessons to co-construct it, step by step, viewing the parts in images, comparing with transpiration, and thinking through the causes. The key is that we bring forth the concept together in conversing. #SystemsTeaching 131

Reposted by Raquel AntónChristian Moore-Anderson @cmooreanderson.eurosky.social · 07/10/2025I co-constructed a very successful model with my Year 10s today. We used it as a basis to explain many different phenomena. Rather than a single explanation like most diagrams provide, models provide the springboard to many explanations. #iTeachBio #SciTeachUK #EduSky 092

Raquel Antón @aprendociencias.bsky.social · 06/05/2025Reflexión del día: Si aceptamos la premisa de que el significado no se puede transmitir a nuestros alumnos, la única opción que nos queda es promover el aprendizaje a través del pensamiento activo de los alumnos para la construcción de significados. 110
