Marygrove College is pleased to present a free, on-demand webinar on how to enrich great science teaching with the Next Generation Science Standards.

Curious about the Next Generation Science Standards in the absence of a common core in science? Take a sneak peek as we walk you through the much-anticipated guidelines of how science instruction is changing--for the better.

According to the National Science Teachers Association, 26 states are leading the development of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), led by the bi-partisan group Achieve. The science education community got its first glimpse of the NGSS draft when it was released in May. Achieve will release a second draft for public comment this fall. Here’s a preview of things to come! Join Marygrove College MAT Coordinator of Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment Dr. Charles Pearson for a discussion about the current status of the NGSS, and how you can keep abreast of the latest changes in the process. A 30-year veteran educator, Dr. Pearson taught middle school science for many years and was a principal for nine. He’ll share his passion for teaching science, and give you some insights to make the most of your classroom time.
