Next Generation Science Standards |
Beschrijving
De Next Generation Science Standards is een inspanning van meerdere staten in de Verenigde Staten om nieuwe onderwijsstandaarden te creëren die “rijk zijn aan inhoud en praktijk, op een samenhangende manier zijn geordend in verschillende disciplines en leeftijdopbouw, om alle leerlingen internationaal gebenchmarkt onderwijs te geven”.
The standards were developed by a consortium of 26 states and by the National Science Teachers Association, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the National Research Council, and Achieve, a nonprofit organization that was also involved in developing math and English standards.
The public was also invited to review the standards, and organizations such as the California Science Teachers Association encouraged this feedback. The final draft of the standards was released in April 2013.
The NGSS integrate the three dimensions introduced in the National Research Council’s A Framework for K-12 Science Education into its student performance expectations. As a result of this innovation, the NGSS look completely different than previous science standards and implementing them requires a major shift in classroom instruction and learning.
