This is the second in a series of 12 web seminars that focus on the disciplinary core ideas of the Next Generation Science Standards. Presenters Aaron Rogat, Educational Testing Service (ETS), and Barbara Hug, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, begin by discussing the arrangement of life science core ideas within the NGSS and comparing them to previous standards. Dr. Rogat then shares an example of a learning progression, showing how a concept can be taught from early elementary through high school, progressing from simple to more complex understandings. The presenters then talk about strategies for instruction and share links to resources. They close with participant questions.
