For anyone getting ready to take on their first #OpenSciEd unit after Winter break: this one’s for you! Remember, #OpenSciEd represents the appropriate depth and rigor for those in #NGSS states: even for college-bound kids. It may not be what you’re used to, and that’s alright! 😀

Hey #EduSky! I’m hanging with the @abeslo.bsky.social doing good work in 5D assessment as we work to make educative coherent systems of science education happen! #Science #NGSS #OpenSciEd What do you think makes a great science assessment?

Exited to complete round 4 Professional Learning of the #OpenSciEd Elementary Field Test Facilitator Academy at @sesp-nu.bsky.social. We opened with dinosaurs and quickly got down to serious work, preparing to support our K-5 teachers in 9 partner states with their 4th unit in the field test.

It’s exciting to see more science teachers join Bluesky.

It’s always interesting to hear what’s happening in your classrooms.

Hey #NGSS folks…

I’m trying to get a feed up & running for us & learning as I go.

Please include #NGSS in your posts

Here are the ‘tags’ (RegEx) that I added:

Any other words I should add to catch NGSS related posts?

I cannot understate the devastation that losing #NSF funding would have on K-12 education. For example, #NSF-funded research informed the design of the #OpenSciEd instructional model, which has enhanced Ss & Ts access to HQIM. Share w/ legislators how NSF has impacted you & to protect this funding.
I’m an NSF panel reviewer that was scheduled to meet today. Just got notice that all NSF panels were canceled today. I reviewed some innovative proposals in support of students. Devastating if these scholars don’t get to do this work. For the love of science & students I hope this is just a delay.💔

Excited to be diving into OpenSciEd as a Modeler! Dipping my toes in, but eager to explore how it aligns with my approach to inquiry-driven science learning. Looking forward to connecting with others on this! #OpenSciEd #STEM #ScienceEducation #Modeling #InquiryBasedLearning #TeachingInnovation
