DESCRIPTION
NRC Fidelity Review The NGSS have passed a fidelity review by the NRC. The review panel was made up of some members from the actual Framework committee and other experts who were familiar with the Framework and NGSS. The National Academies Press will publish the NGSS in print form. This represents the first time in its history that the NAP is publishing a report that was not developed by a committee or board of the National Academies.

NRC Fidelity Review
The NGSS have passed a fidelity review by the NRC.
The review panel was made up of some members from the actual Framework committee and other experts who were familiar with the Framework and NGSS.
The National Academies Press will publish the NGSS in print form. This represents the first time in its history that the NAP is publishing a report that was not developed by a committee or board of the National Academies.
What’s Different about the Next Generation Science Standards?
Three Dimensions Intertwined
The NGSS are written as Performance Expectations
NGSS will require contextual application of the three dimensions by students.
Focus is on how and why as well as what
Science Context
Instructional Shifts in the NGSS
1. Performance Expectations
2. Evidence of learning
3. Learning Progressions
4. Science and Engineering
5. Coherence of Science Instruction
6. Connections within Science and between Common Core State Standards
