SDCOE Science Theory of Action IF we are clear about defining the high leverage practices, resources, and understandings teachers need to effectively implement NGSS...

WHICH WILL RESULT IN more powerful learning experiences for ALL students.
Evidence-Based Practices in Science SDCOE Science Resource Center: ngss.sdcoe.net 8
Evidence-Based Practices in Science Evidence-based practices in science reflect some of the best tools and strategies that bring about desired outcomes in student learning. Teachers utilize a variety of practices and collect evidence from formative and summative assessments as well as other data to refine their pedagogical skills and help support the learning of all students in their classroom.
