How to Launch MeterHero in 8 minutes:

Quick summary for teachers with limited time

 

1) See how MeterHero engages students and leads to real impact

Check out the 90 second launch video, exemplar student projects, and the final project templates.
*Note: All of these items are already linked within the slides that you’ll show in class.

 

2) Understand how MeterHero works in class

Each lesson is ready to go with minimal prep time and follows this rhythm:

  • A) Show Slides: All instructions and links to materials are included

  • B) Optional Graphic Organizers: Students edit template documents as they investigate their real data

  • C) Enter Results Into the Dashboard: Students log in, click their meter, and fill in their Project Plan

 

3) Choose When you Want to Implement MeterHero

Because MeterHero makes APES real for students in just six steps (that take little class time), it’s the ideal enhancement for start-of-the-year, units 5/6 or Post-Exam.

Note: *Ideally, students have three weeks to collect baseline data, experimental data and report out their findings. If you have less than three weeks after the exam, simply have students only collect a few days of data and complete Steps 1 and 2 during Units 5/6.

MeterHero is ready-to-go.
