Presentation Transcript

  1. Next Generation Science Standards

  2. Building on the Past; Preparing for the Future 1990s-2009 Phase I Phase II 1990s 7/2010 – 12/2013 1/2010 - 7/2011

  3. Process for Development of Next Generation Science Standards States and other key stakeholders are engaged in the development and review of the new college and career ready science standards • State Led Process • Writing Teams • Critical Stakeholder Team • Achieve is managing the development process NRC Study Committee members to check the fidelity of standards based on framework

  4. Lead State Partners

  5. Disciplinary Core Ideas Science and Engineering Practices Crosscutting Concepts

  6. Organization of the NGSS Organized by Disciplinary Content • Physical Science • Life Science • Earth-Space Science • Engineering K-5 • Grade By Grade • Engineering concepts are integrated into performance expectations 6-8 • Grade Banded • Model Pathways to follow the second public draft 9-12 • Grade Banded • Model Pathways to follow the second public draft

  7. Conceptual Shifts in the NGSS • K–12 Science Education Should Reflect the Real World Interconnections in Science • Science and Engineering Practices and Crosscutting Concepts should not be taught in a vacuum; they should always be integrated with multiple core concepts throughout the year. • Science concepts build coherently across K-12 • The NGSS Focus on Deeper Understanding and Application of Content • Integration of science and engineering • Coordination with Common Core State Standards

  8. Disciplinary Core Ideas Science and Engineering Practices Crosscutting Concepts

  9. Components of the NGSS Public Release

  10. Details about the Public Release Goal: To distribute and receive feedback from interested stakeholders; to create a transparent yet managed process – one that targets and communicates primarily with key constituents • The standards will be open for three weeks in May. • The standards and the survey can be accessed at www.nextgenscience.org • NGSS will supply a statement to states, partners and interested parties (NOT a press release) • Link to draft standards will be posted on the NGSS homepage • Sample talking points for all states

  11. NGSS Public Release Contents • How To Read The Standards • Conceptual Shifts in the Next Generation Science Standards • College and Career Readiness and the Next Generation Science Standards • Diversity and Equity in the NGSS: All Standards, All Students • Next Generation Science Standards • Practices and Crosscutting Progression Matrices

  12. Communication Support forthe NGSS Draft Public Resources • Attitudes Toward Science Education: Key Findings from a National Survey • Science Education in the 21st Century • Why K-12 Science Standards Matter – Why the time is right to develop NGSS Private Resources • NGSS Core Messages • NGSS Development Activities to Date • NGSS Key Talking Points for States
