Equitable, Rigorous, Engaging Science Instruction Starts with Investing in Educators
Do you have staff at your school who need professional development related to
Next Generation Science Standards?
Do you want to provide your teachers with professional learning that is described as a "great use of my precious teacher time"?
Do you need guidance from experienced NGSS practitioners? You've come to the right place.
Who We Are
We are a team of three educators who believe that access to high-quality science teaching for all can change the world. Between the three of us, we have taught science from pre-K through 12th grade. We've worked in American public schools and international schools. In addition to our classroom experience, we have coached teachers, worked in school administration, and managed school-wide implementation of Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)
During the COVID-19 pandemic, we were all working at different international schools in Latin America. Taking advantage of the virtual learning options that the pandemic afforded us, we planned and facilitated a series of virtual conferences for hundreds of science educators from over 40 American schools across Latin America. From feedback from conference participants, we identified the need for high quality professional learning to on-board teachers who are new to a school that is implementing Next Generation Science Standards. To address this need, we created the NGSS Foundations Virtual Course. Since we created the course in 2021, thousands of educators have piloted the course and helped us to refine the content. View the "Testimonials" tab above to hear what our course participants have said and to understand why we feel compelled to make this couse available for a wider audience. We look forward to partnering with schools, districts, educational associations, and educators who are invested in moving their science programs forward. We'd love to work with you.
