The Next Generation Science Standards Grades K-12

This online course for teachers is designed for educators in grades K-12 who want to unpack the complexity of the Next Generation Science Standards. This course takes teachers through a step-by-step explanation of the standards, including a thorough description of the conceptual framework leading into how to interpret the science and engineering practices, crosscutting concepts, and disciplinary core ideas at each respective grade band. Performance expectations for the standards are also addressed. The role of curricula is discussed, as well as how Universal Design for Learning plays an important role in the assessment of the standards. Teachers will be introduced to an overview of assessment and how it applies to the Next Generation Science standards, as well as a brief overview of how to bundle some of the core ideas contained within the standards. Suggestions for integrating technology into science instruction are also shared.
