[Currdir] Next Generation Science Standards Public Review Now Open!

[HOEXTER Camilla]

Hello Education Colleagues,

The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) final public review is now open!  This draft of the NGSS will be available for feedback from January 8, 2013 through January 29, 2013.  This is the last public review period before the standards are completed in March 2013.  We fully encourage all interested parties to review the draft NGSS as individuals or in groups and provide feedback to the Lead States and writers.

Please visit http://www.nextgenscience.org/next-generation-science-standards to access the online survey and the support documents available for your review.  To go directly to the online survey, please visit http://interceptum.com/ngss/how.html.   This page provides instructions on how to register and access the online survey.  You will need to choose which of the two views (by disciplinary core idea or by topic) you want to access.  When you choose the view, you will be directed to the registration page.

For more information on the NGSS and Oregon's work as an NGSS Lead State, visit the ODE NGSS webpage http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=3508.  Please let me know if you have questions or need additional information.

Thank you for your engagement with this important work to improve science education!
