Student discourse in the science classroom is extremely important. The iPads, when used in conjunction with the SWIVL C bot, will be used to record video and audio of students having scientific conversations within cooperative learning opportunities and the inquiry process. Once the video and audio is recorded it will be used to analyze the level of scientific discourse. The data collected will be used to enhance the career and college readiness of our students as the develop the skills needed to improve the level of scientific discourse within the small groups. These files will then be posted to our district's online platform for students; turning science experimentation and discovery into an anytime anywhere experience. The SWIVL C bot's markers serve as microphones for the iPad mini and will be strategically located at each of the lab benches to record all of the scientific conversations that are taking place within the small groups. Audio can then be incorporated into the video to produce a powerful learning tool that can help guide instruction. With these tools, we will create sample videos that illustrate the progression of student scientific discourse throughout the school year. It is our intent to see an improvement in the level of scientific discourse as the year progresses.
