NGSS• Science education is central to the lives
of all Americans. • Educators need to prepare students to
be informed citizens in a democracy and knowledgeable consumers.
• All students must have a solid 22 science education that prepares them for life, college, and career.

Who developed the NGSS?
The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) were developed through a collaborative state-led process. Twenty-six states (including California) volunteered to work with the 41 members of the writing team to lead the development of the standards.

How are they different?
• NGSS were developed by states, for states.
• Benchmarked against countries whose students perform well in science and engineering fields.
• Built upon a vision for quality science education for ALL students—not just a select few.

NGSS and Environmental Principles and Concepts
Principle I - People Depend on Natural Systems
Principle II - People Influence Natural Systems
Principle III - Natural Systems Change in Ways that People Benefit from and can Influence
Principle IV - There are no Permanent or Impermeable Boundaries that Prevent Matter from Flowing Between Systems
Principle V - Decisions Affecting Resources and Natural Systems are Complex and Involve Many Factors

Cross-Cutting ConceptsThey are common themes that are seen across all domains of science.• Patterns• Cause-Effect: Mechanism and Explanation• Scale, Proportion, and Quantity• Systems and System Models• Energy and Matter• Structure and Function• Stability and Change

Disciplinary Core IdeasAn important role of science education is not to teach “all the facts” but rather to prepare students with sufficient core knowledge.• Physical Science• Life Science• Earth and Space Science• Engineering Design
8
TOM TORLAKSONState Superintendent of Public Instruction
Science and Engineering Practices
• Asking questions (for science) and defining problems (for engineering)
• Developing and using models• Planning and carrying out investigations• Analyzing and interpreting data• Using mathematics and computational thinking• Constructing explanations and designing
solutions• Engaging in argument from evidence• Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating
information9

The CA NGSS Implementation Plan for California
• Provides 8 Guiding Strategies• Includes a timeline of significant events• Highlights opportunities for LEAs and
Community Stakeholders• Begins the process of updating school
curriculum and equipment to match the latest scientific knowledge and technology

The Work at the State and Local Levels
• Expand science education in elementary schools
• Support educators to deliver instruction in ways that integrate content
• Provide ongoing, job-embedded professional learning
• Coordinate with partners within and well beyond the traditional education community
15
TOM TORLAKSONState Superintendent of Public Instruction
Strategy 8: Coalition Building• Design and participate in state and local
coalitions to support quality implementation
• Provide momentum and develop consistent messages and information.
• Identify and prioritize NGSS implementation issues and needs.
• Develop and refine messages and materials. 16

Professional Learning
• Phase I Awareness Workshops (2014)– Ten 2-day events– Locations across CA
• Phase II Workshops (2015-2016)
• Phase III Workshops (2016-2017)
