The second and final public draft of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) is expected out soon. When the draft is released for public feedback, NSTA encourages science educators to take the time to review this important document and provide feedback to Achieve at www.nextgenscience.org.
In addition to encouraging science educators to take the Achieve survey, NSTA is seeking science educators willing to review the NGSS draft and answer questions about the implementation of NGSS, such as what types of professional development and curricular materials will be needed. We invite teachers from every level, district and state science supervisors, science department chairs, informal science educators, university level science educators, and others with a wide variety of science teaching expertise. Volunteers should be NSTA members and be prepared to spend at least 2-3 hours to review the NGSS public draft and answer the NSTA survey questions.
If you would like to be considered for this project, please go to https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KMFF2H3 and fill out the online registration form. Deadline to register is December 1. You will have about 10 days to complete the NSTA survey after the release of the NGSS public draft.
