Ten Years of NGSS

I was recently reading the March/April 2023 issue of “Science & Children” a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.  In this issue, I read the “Editor’s Note” column, written by Elizabeth Barrett-Zahn.  She wrote an article entitled, “Ten Years of NGSS: Where Are We Now?”

In the 10 years since the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) were released, 44 states have implemented standards influenced by NGSS and/or “A Framework for K-12 Science Education.”  Where are we now with the implementation of the NGSS?
