Today Opening Project Overview How do we Do Science? The Framework for the Next Generation Science Standards Practices of Science & Engineering LUNCH with a Scientist Learning about Practices Wrap Up & Evaluation
Today’s Goals Increase awareness of the Next Generation Science Standards Gain an understanding of the PSEP Project Increase awareness of the Science & Engineering Practices Build relationships between partners and participants
Evaluator: Laurie Collins, PhD
PSEP Evaluation Laurie Collins, PhD • External Evaluator for PSEP • Center for Research and Learning • Background in education • 20 years experience conducting evaluations • Connect program evaluation with improved practice My Role: • Conduct all evaluation activities • All evaluation data will be kept external to your school district • PSEP data/outcomes will not affect your teacher evaluations in your district • Only group information will be shared with PSEP leaders
PSEP EvaluationSystematic collection and analysis of data needed to make decisions • Formative feedback to project leaders will be used to make data-driven decisions for continuous improvement. • Summative findings will be used to measure project impact and progress toward goals.
PSEP EvaluationMeasuring our Impact • Feedback and evaluation of content following workshops – including the Kick Off session today • Assessment of our science content knowledge (MOSART online survey) • Assessment of change in our beliefs and attitudes about the project (CBAM online survey)
Your Science Story Part 1: Think about your own science story See p. 3 in your Notebook Part 2: Share your science story with an elbow partner Part 3: Any commonalities in the powerful experiences?

Major state and district policies CCSS Math and ELA WA State Science Standards “fully implemented” with “new assessment system” in 2014-15 Current assessments through 2017 or 2018 Teacher/Principal Evaluation Statewide implementation 2013-14
Example Teacher/Principal Evaluation Framework:Charlotte Danielson Framework for Teaching (FFT)
In your Notebook…How do these policies affect you? CCSS Math and ELA WA State Science Standards “fully implemented” with “new assessment system” in 2014-15 Current assessments through 2017 or 2018 Teacher/Principal Evaluation Statewide implementation 2013-14
How this Partnership project will support you CCSS Math and ELA WA State Science Standards “fully implemented” with “new assessment system” in 2014-15 Current assessments through 2017 or 2018 Teacher/Principal Evaluation Statewide implementation 2013-14
Grounding in TPEP/Danielson FFT • OSPI Math-Science Partnership Program Goal: “Enhance the content knowledge and teaching skills of classroom teachers” Charlotte Danielson FFT

Overlaps in Common Core State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards Engage in Construct viable argument from arguments and evidence critique the reasoning of others Write arguments to support claims with clear reasons and relevant evidence CREDIT: Tina Cheuk, Understanding Language Initiative, Stanford University
What about our current Science Standards? CCSS Math and ELA WA State Science Standards “fully implemented” with “new assessment system” in 2014-15 Current assessments through 2017 or 2018 Teacher/Principal Evaluation Statewide implementation 2013-14
Overlap between WA Science Standards and Next Generation Science Standards 6-8 INQF: Explain 4-5 INQG: Explain NGSS Practice 6: Constructing Explanations NGSS Practice 7: Engaging in Arguments from Evidence Common Frame for an Argument Claim Evidence Reasoning Generate a conclusion from a scientific investigation and show how the conclusion is supported by evidence and other scientific principles. Conclusion Scoring Attributes • Conclusive statement • Supporting data • Explanatory Language
Partnership Professional Development Goal Increase teachers’ content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge for: • The Scientific and Engineering Practice of Engaging in Arguments from Evidence • The Scientific Practice of Constructing Explanations and the Engineering Practice of Designing Solutions • Disciplinary Core Ideas for Engineering • Defining and Delimiting Engineering Problems (ETS1A) • Developing Possible Solutions (ETS1B) • Optimizing the Design Solution (ETS1C)
In your Notebook…(p. 4) Given the expectations of policies for WA State Standards, CCSS, TPEP, and NGSS,… …what supports do you need to effectively plan instruction for your students?
