Thank you!

We would like to thank LASER and the Pacific Science Center for hosting us today.

Welcome and Today’s Outcomes

• Review Elements Table• Explore equity research and strategies in NGSS

implementation at the secondary level.• Come to common understanding about secondary NGSS• Review middle and high school NGSS standards and

draft transition plans.• Discuss and create common message to be shared with

stakeholders to address concerns for districts around middle and high school science courses and pathways.

Page 4: NGSS Secondary Implementation and Transition Planning

But first…..

–Before we start…please use the post-its for your hopes and dreams for today.

Updates from Achieve• NGSS Evidence Statements will provide educators with additional detail on what students should

know and be able to do. Model content frameworks will build on these statements and offer further clarity on implementing the NGSS in the classroom. Early 2014

• Classroom Assessment Tasks are a vision of integrating science, engineering and mathematics in classroom assessment. Teachers across the disciplines are collaborating to write sample tasks that blend content, practices and concepts from both the NGSS and the Common Core State Standards. Early 2014

• NGSS Accelerated Pathways are course models that provide examples of how the NGSS can be tailored for accelerated students. Created by Advanced Placement teachers, these models help schools and districts to envision pathways for students intending to take AP science courses in their junior year. Early 2014

• The EQuIP NGSS Rubric will help educators and education leaders identify high quality, NGSS-aligned instructional materials, and provide feedback to improve existing materials, through a criterion-based, peer-review process. Early 2014

• The Science Standards Comparison Toolkit will help teachers and administrators consider the differences in purpose and content between different sets of standards. Early 2014

• The NGSS data portal will let users search and view the NGSS to meet their individual needs for display on computers and mobile devices. This flexible resource will eventually allow users to tag and share resources. Summer 2014

Let’s spend some time with the NGSS…

How do we understand the secondary standards?

Analyzing a Performance Expectation

Addressing our own questions and concerns

Highlights, Comments, and Captions

Three Parts to this ProtocolPart 1: Record Data-make no judgments, inferences, or conclusionsPart 2: Record “what it means”-this is your opportunity to make those inferences and conclusionsPart 3: Reflect and Summarize your findings

What It Means?I notice that students will have to make

observation and comparisons. I

will have to teach these

skills in multiple settings

Caption

• If this place mat was a picture in a book, what caption would you give it?

• Write a one to three sentence caption describing what you have created so that the reader understands the implications of the image.

Standards take the form of performance expectations

defined through combinations of elements of the three dimensions that progress across grade levels

Three dimensional standards, Three dimensional instruction,Three dimensional curriculum.

Page 25: NGSS Secondary Implementation and Transition Planning

1. Asking questions (for science) and defining problems (for engineering)

2. Developing and using models 3. Planning and carrying out investigations 4. Analyzing and interpreting data5. Using mathematics, information and computer

technology, and computational thinking 6. Constructing explanations (for science) and

designing solutions (for engineering) 7. Engaging in argument from evidence8. Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating

information

Dimension 1: Science and Engineering Practices

Page 26: NGSS Secondary Implementation and Transition Planning

Model for Scientific Practices (NRC, 2012)

Page 27: NGSS Secondary Implementation and Transition Planning

Why Practices? • The practices are considered to be central to

science and engineering.

• Practices…

– engage students productively in inquiry,

– support important learning processes, and

– help students understand aspects of the science and engineering enterprises

Page 28: NGSS Secondary Implementation and Transition Planning

Designing for Learner Agency• Encourage students… “to be authors and producers of

knowledge with ownership over it rather than mere consumers of it, and [encouraging] teachers and other members of the learning community to position students as stakeholders by publicly identifying them with the claims, approaches, explanations, designs and other responses to the problems that they pursue” (Engle and Conant, 2002, p. 404).

• Learner agency takes three forms:1. Support active knowledge construction by engaging students in

the practices2. Have learning experiences grow out of the lives of learners—

connect science to real world contexts3. Leverage funds of knowledge of learners (interests, knowledge,

reasoning, identities)

1. We will use the questions on the next slide and back-map them to the performance expectations.

2. The goal is to see which PEs might support, coordinate and “speak” with each other – similar to Rodger Bybee’s concept of bundling. This will help us determine if there is an opportunity for WA to think about integrating PEs into specific courses.

Studying the NGSS Secondary StandardsOur next task…

Page 30: NGSS Secondary Implementation and Transition Planning

1. How can Taylor Shellfish and communities that rely on shellfish farming plan for changes in the pH of the ocean?

2. How can Hanford Nuclear Site remediate the environment?3. How do micro-plastics impact the Puget Sound aqua environment?4. What design innovations can be implemented on aging dams,

bridges and roadways in WA?5. Predict how environmental toxins may impact living organisms?6. Construct an argument for the testing of nuclear fallout in the water

traveling from Japan to the western United States.7. Develop a model for the Dept of Forestry that takes into account the

impact of climate change on the health and the location of forests in WA.

8. Other questions that might be useful?

Studying the NGSS Secondary StandardsWhat would it take for students to tackle the

following questions?

Transition Plans

• Examine the Transition Plans in light of the day’s activities– What recommendations will help districts

transition to the NGSS?– What do the NGSS learning spaces need to look

like?
