Maine is home to many wonderful things, including lighthouses, lobsters, and beautiful state and national parks. Add one more to the list! Now they’re an official #NGSS adopter. Congratulations to the Pine Tree State!

Teacher shortages are real, but now is not the time to lower standards. It’s time to strengthen teacher prep to better prepare our teachers for the realities they face each day. Kids and our profession deserve the best. Thx to all the commissioners who contributed to this report.

Many states have been hiring underqualified teachers to address the worsening teacher shortage—but this is like putting a band-aid on a gaping wound. Learn about long-term solutions to effectively address shortages & strengthen the workforce. learningpolicyinstitute.org/…

Q2: The Science Professional Learning Standards (SPLS) were developed by the Council of State Science Supervisors and are available at cosss.org/Professional-Learn…. Have you used the previous version of the Science Professional Learning Standards (SPLS)? If so, how? #NGSSChat

Research shows that an effective way to help students learn is to engage them in science investigation and engineering design. Students ask questions, collect and analyze data, and use this evidence to better understand the natural and built world. xitter.cf/OfficialNGSS/status/10…

This new report from @TheNASEM's Board on Science Education describes evidence-based ways that teaching and learning can shift toward science investigations and engineering design to help realize this new vision in the classroom: nap.edu/catalog/25216/scienc…
