Learning Target
We are building awareness and gaining
familiarity with the Next Generation Science
Standards.

• Recognize the structure of the Next Generation
  Science Standards (NGSS)
• Identify the shifts represented in the NGSS

Next Generation Science Standards
• Identify content and science and engineering
  practices that all students should learn from
  kindergarten to high school graduation
• Completed fall or winter 2012

The Framework has a new vision of
science learning that leads to a new
vision of teaching

Conceptual Shifts in the
Next Generation Science Standards
  1. K–12 Science Education Should Reflect the Real World
     Interconnections in Science.
  2. 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.
  3. Science Concepts Build Coherently Across K–12.
  4. The NGSS Focus on Deeper Understanding and
     Application of Content.
  5. Science and Engineering are Integrated in Science
     Education from K–12.
  6. Science Standards Coordinate with English Language
     Arts and Mathematics Common Core State Standards.

Development Considerations for
          Next Generation Science Standards
▫ Organization
  Grade levels (K-5) and grade bands (middle and high
   school)
  High school standards versus courses
  Middle school content
  Scientific and Engineering Practice
  Cross-cutting concepts
▫ Inclusion of examples for content and performance
  expectations
▫ NGSS-Common Core State Standards in ELA and math
  connection
▫ Vocabulary and accessibility
▫ Learning progressions
▫ Exemplary features identified in int’l benchmarking study

DRAFT!
• The NGSS are in draft form!
• We are not going to begin activities such as
  aligning curriculum or identifying Power
  Standards with them yet.
• We are building awareness for the release of the
  standards in fall/winter 2012/2013
  (anticipated).

  1. Organization-Grade bands and/or grade levels for K-8? By domains or by courses for high school?Inquiry & Design Practices- NRC draft framework compares and contrasts target proficiencies in Science and Engineering. Canada has developed continua for proficiencies for both inquiry and design. ---Should the NGSS include analogous continua? ---Is there a role for confirmatory investigations? If so, how do we build a progression that moves students over time to independent inquiry and design work?---Does the term “science practices” convey the same meaning as “scientific inquiry?”Examples-NRC draft framework notes: “each standard should be defined as the intersection of scientific knowledge and practices. NGSS will need to specify performance expectationsalong with content. ---Which examples from international, national or state standards are promising models ?---Should we include multiple examples to make content expectations concrete and help real-world connections to the natural and designed worlds?MathConnection-Recent research has underscored the relationship of mathematics to postsecondary success in science courses. How can we effectively address the quantitative nature of science K-8? Are there some guiding principles that we need to formulate and apply?Connection to CCSS in Ela and math-How do we show concrete connections? Contemporary topics How could topics such as bio-medical engineering, forensics and nanotechnology be included? Do we need selection criteria?Ethics & habits of mind Should ethics and habits of mind be addressed? If so, how?Scientific vocabulary AAAS Science for All Americans 1990 notes (…the technical vocabulary is limited to what would be desirable for all students to command, as a minimum, by the time they finish school. This vocabulary should be viewed as a product of a sound education in science, mathematics, and technology, but not its main purpose. Should we adhere to this guiding principle for K-8? Learning progressions - clearly a concern of the NRC but the research base is nascent. NSF is funding CPRE to develop an empirical base and plans to hold a workshop in summer 2011. How can we use the findings of the NSF workshop to refine the draft of the standards that will be in play at that time?Exemplary features-in its international benchmarking study, Achieve identified characteristics of countries’ standards worthy of consideration for inclusion in the NGSS. Which, if any, of the exemplary features should be adapted for the NGSS?
