  1. January 18, 2013 Overview and Updates

  2. Outcomes • Discuss the development process of the NGSS • Provide information regarding the NGSS and relationship to CCSS

  3. Goal of NGSS Develop standards that will be rich in content and practice, arranged in a coherent manner across disciplines and grades to provide all students an internationally benchmarked science education.  Disciplinary Core Ideas Science and Engineering Practices Crosscutting Concepts

  4. NGSS vs CCSS • Focus on Content Standards and Practices • Privately Funded • May be adopted fully or partially • Literacy in Science • Convened by State Schools Officers and Governors • Must be adopted in its entirety Science Testing is mandated by Federal Requirements

  5. California is 1 of 26 Lead State Partners

  6. NGSS Development Process

  7. A Vision for K-12 Science Education Two major goals addressed in A Framework for K-12 Science Education are: • educating all students in science and engineering and • providing the foundational knowledge for those who will become the scientists, engineers, technologists, and technicians of the future.

  8. Three Major dimensions: • Scientific and engineering practices • Crosscutting concepts • Core ideas in four disciplinary content areas Content Practices Crosscutting

  9. 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

  10. Dimension 3: Disciplinary Core Ideas • Physical Sciences • PS 1: Matter and its interactions • PS 2: Motion and stability: Forces and interactions • PS 3: Energy • PS 4: Waves and their applications in technologies for information transfer • Life Sciences • LS 1: From molecules to organisms: Structures and processes • LS 2: Ecosystems: Interactions, energy, and dynamics • LS 3: Heredity: Inheritance and variation of traits • LS 4: Biological evolution: Unity and diversity • Earth and Space Sciences • ESS 1: Earth’s place in the universe • ESS 2: Earth’s systems • ESS 3: Earth and human activity • Engineering, Technology, and the Applications of Science • ETS 1: Engineering design • ETS 2: Links among engineering, technology, science, and society

  11. Public Draft of NGSS • Available now at http://www.nextgenscience.org/next-generation-science-standards • Arranged based on the Core Ideas • Public Comment open until January 29, 2013
