Page 4: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Where is WI at in this process WI was not a lead state, but input was sought by WI and a

Leadership team was developed and met regularly over the last year and a half.

WI – Decision to adopt the NGSS will be up to Tony Evers once the Standards are released.

We have one teacher from our State who is on the writing team. She works w/Elementary ELL students, she will be at our three day NGSS workshop in the summer.

Looking into developing a ‘fast track’ earth science certification for HS requirements.

Working w/CESA’s for a Statewide Roll-Out plan

Survey – of Familiarity w/Framework

How many of you read the Framework for K-12 Science

Education?

How many of you read the first draft of the NGSS? How many of you read the 2nd draft of the NGSS? 1) Read them 2) Submitted Comments individually

3) Submitted Comments as a Group

Page 6: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Principles in the Framework:

• Children are born investigators• Understanding builds over time• Science and Engineering require both

knowledge and practice• Connecting to students’ interests and

experiences is essential• Focusing on core ideas and practices• Promoting equity

Integration of the Three Dimensions

Core IdeasPractices

Crosscutting Concepts

The practices are the processes of building and using the core ideas to make sense of the natural and designed world, and the cross cutting concepts hold the discipline together.

Closer Look at a Performance Expectation

Construct and use models to explain that atoms combine to form new substances of varying complexity in terms of the number of atoms and repeating subunits. [Clarification Statement: Examples of atoms combining can include Hydrogen (H2) and Oxygen (O2) combining to form hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or water(H2O). [Assessment Boundary: Restricted to macroscopic interactions.]

Performance expectations combine practices, core ideas, and crosscutting concepts into a single statement of what is to be assessed.

They are not instructional strategies or objectives for a lesson.

Inside the NGSS Box

What is AssessedA collection of several

performance expectations describing what students

should be able to do to master this standard

Foundation BoxThe practices, core disciplinary

ideas, and crosscutting concepts from the Framework

for K-12 Science Education that were used to form the performance expectations

Connection BoxOther standards in the Next

Generation Science Standards or in the Common Core State

Standards that are related to this standard

Performance ExpectationsA statement that combines practices, core ideas, and crosscutting concepts together to describe how students can show what they have learned.

Title and CodeTwo sets of performance expectations at different grade levels may use the same name if they focus on the same topic. The code, however, is a unique identifier for each standard based on the grade level, content area, and topic of the standard.

Scientific & Engineering PracticesActivities that scientists and engineers engage in to either understand the world or solve a problem

Disciplinary Core IdeasConcepts in science and engineering that have broad importance within and across disciplines as well as relevance in people’s lives.

Crosscutting ConceptsIdeas, such as Patterns and Cause and Effect, which are not specific to any one discipline but cut across them all.

Lowercase LettersLowercase letters at the end of practices, core ideas, and crosscutting Concepts designate which Performance expectation incorporates them.

Assessment BoundaryA statement that provides guidance about the scope of the performance expectation at a particular grade level.

Clarification StatementA statement that supplies examples or additional clarification to the performance expectation.

Page 13: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Changes: Draft #1 to Draft #2

- Nature of Science was included much more (expect more integration)- Technology, Engineering and Applied Science more integrated. -Math more integrated and closer look at progression. - REDUCED amount of content -Corrected some science-Appendicies were added for more support and resources-95% of the Standards were changed

Recommendations for Draft #2 from both NSTA/AAPT

Page 14: Next  Generation  Science Standards

NSTA Recommendations For Final Doc. Need to emphasize the importance of

Foundation Boxes versus Performance Expectations Contain the fundamental aspects of

learning goals for teaching and planning instruction

Performance Expectations to be used at the conclusion of learning for assessment

Page 15: Next  Generation  Science Standards

NSTA Recommendations All elements listed in Appendix H be

included in standards for all students Reduce the size and scope of the

standards: fewer concepts, less complexity at each grade level

Include guidance on the time and resources necessary for implementation

Page 16: Next  Generation  Science Standards

AAPT Recommendations Clarify and correct scientific inaccuracies in

the disciplinary core ideas Do not associate only one science and

engineering practice with one disciplinary core idea – prefer any practice/s with any DCI

Clarify wording of performance expectations

Page 17: Next  Generation  Science Standards

AAPT Recommendations Correct science content so that science

teachers do not doubt credibility of entire enterprise

Question Model Pathway 3: just a restatement of standard biology-chemistry-physics pathway Concerned about the imbalance in number of DCIs

associated with biology as compared to chemistry and physics

DCI – Disciplinary Core IdeasA core idea for K-12 science instruction is a scientific idea that:

• Has broad importance across multiple science or engineering disciplines or is a key organizing concept of a single discipline

• Provides a key tool for understanding or investigating more complex ideas and solving problems

• Relates to the interests and life experiences of students or can be connected to societal or personal concerns that require scientific or technical knowledge

• Is teachable and learnable over multiple grades at increasing levels of depth and sophistication

Progressions The science standards are written providing a

progression to facilitate coherence in learning of these ideas over the course of schooling.

Science 25 January 2013: Vol. 339 no. 6118 pp. 396-397

AAAS

“Descriptions of the successively more sophisticated ways of thinking about an idea that follow one another as students learn” (Wilson & Bertenthal, 2005)

Page 24: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Progressions“ If mastery of a core idea in a science discipline

is the ultimate educational destination, then well-designed learning progressions provide a map of the routes that can be taken to reach that destination. Such progressions describe both how students’ understanding of the idea matures over time and the instructional supports and experiences that are needed in order for them to make progress.”

Need for CLOSE reading & Understanding:

If you read the above without specialized knowledge, it implies at first glance that we need telescopes to see planets. A careful reading dispels this, since obviously the moon can be seen without a scope, but if you're an elementary school teacher without a background in science you may not be aware that several planets are quite obvious in the night sky.

That we can see Saturn easily in this particular part of the world surprises most folks.

Page 33: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Practices: ArgumentScientists engage in argument to :

Defend claims using evidence and reasoning Defend models using evidence Critique the claims of other scientists

- Look for sufficient and appropriate evidence

Joe Krajcik, Lead Physics Writer of Science Framework

Page 34: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Reasons Scientists use argumentsScientist use argument to defend Interpretation of data Experimental designs Method of data analysis The appropriateness of a question“In science, the production of knowledge is

dependent on a process of reasoning from evidence that requires a scientist to justify a claim about the world. In response, other scientists attempt to identify the claim’s weakness and limitations to obtain the best possible explanation.”

Framework

Page 35: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Explanations in Science “The goal of science is the construction of

theories that provide explanatory accounts of the world. A theory becomes accepted when it has multiple lines of empirical evidence and greater explanatory power of phenomena than previous theories”

- Explains the How or Why- Relies on Evidence

*The products of science are explanation and products of engineering are solutions.

Page 36: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Argument vs Explanation Argument is part of the process of science that

defends those explanations by carefully ruling out other alternative explanations and building the case that the data collected is sufficient and appropriate to serve as evidence for the current claim.

What are some examples of this… Ex. Claim, Evidence, Arugument, and Explanation

Page 37: Next  Generation  Science Standards

Progression of a PracticeGrades K-2 Grades 3-5 Middle School High SchoolMake a claim and use evidence.

Construct and support scientific arguments drawing on evidence, data, or a model. Consider other ideas.

Construct and present oral and written arguments supported by empirical evidence and reasoning to support or refute an explanation for a phenomenon.

Construct a counter argument that is based in data and evidence that challenges another proposed argument. By Gr. 12-Identify possible weaknesses in argument and discuss them using reasoning and evidence. -Identify flaws in their own arguments and respond to criticism of others.
