What Are the NGSS?
• The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are based on the Framework for K-12 Science Education developed by the National Research Council (NRC)1
• The framework provides an evidence-based foundation for standards by drawing on current research on the ways students learn science effectively – and the science all K-12 students should know.

Three Dimensions of Learning
• Dimension 1. Science and Engineering Practices• Emphasis on engaging in scientific investigation
• Dimension 2: Cross-Cutting Concepts• Concepts that have applications across all domains
of science (e.g., patterns, causes and effect, stability and change)
• Dimension 3: Disciplinary Core Ideas• Must have broad importance and provide key tools

Conceptual Shifts and the NGSS
1. K–12 science education should reflect the interconnected nature of science as it is practiced and experienced in the real world.
2. The NGSS are student performance expectations, NOT curriculum.
3. The science concepts in the NGSS build coherently from K–12.
4. The NGSS focus on deeper understanding and application of content.
5. Science and engineering are integrated in the NGSS, from K–12.
6. The NGSS are designed to prepare students for college, career, and citizenship.7. The NGSS and Common Core State Standards (English Language Arts and Mathematics) are aligned.

Which of these conceptual shifts represent the greatest challenges for you with respect
to teaching and learning?
Science ed. should reflect interconnected nature NGSS are student performance expectations The science concepts build coherently from K-12 NGSS focus on deeper understanding Science and engineering are integrated NGSS prepares students for college, career, etc. NGSS and CCSS are aligned

NGSS and Professional Development
• How can we support teachers in making these conceptual shifts and effectively implementing the NGSS?

Consensus Model of Effective Professional Development
(Yoon et al., 2007; Desimone, 2009; Wilson, 2013)
Effective Professional Development . . . • Focuses on specific subject matter content • Engages teachers in active learning • Is coherent (aligned with teachers’ prior
knowledge and beliefs; aligned with reform documents and school policy and practice)
• Is of sufficient duration• Involves the collective participation of teachers
(all teachers in a school, grade level, or dept.)
![Page 21: 0RGHOV RI 3URIHVVLRQDO 'HYHORSPHQW WR 6XSSRUW ... · View the clip below and then spend 5– 10 minutes describing and analyzing anything you notice regarding the science content,](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060302/5f0877247e708231d422258a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Research Supporting the Consensus Model
• Relies heavily on teacher self-report • Rarely looks at impact on student learning• When the research does look at student
learning, the results are mixed

Our Assertions
• The consensus model is not enough to guide the development of PD opportunities that will support the kinds of teacher change needed to help students reach the NGSS.
• Stronger lines of research on effective PD, especially in science education, are needed.

Program elements that embody this theory:1) Learning progression starting with highly scaffolded
experience moving towards greater independence 2) Experiences that create a “need to know” dissonance3) Use of experts who plan for and guide teacher learning

Lesson Analysis: The Basics
• Viewing Basic #1: Look past the trivial, the little things that “bug” you.
• Viewing Basic #2: Avoid the “this doesn’t look like my classroom” trap.
• Viewing Basic #3: Avoid making snap judgments about the teaching or learning in the classroom you are viewing.
• Analysis Basic #1: Focus on student thinking and the science content storyline.
• Analysis Basic #2: Look for evidence to support any claims.
• Analysis Basic #3: Look more than once.
• Analysis Basic #4: Consider alternative explanations and teaching strategies.

Pedagogical Content Knowledge (Teacher)
(~20 minutes per video)
In Ms. Dieken's fifth grade class, students are trying to explain different scenarios that were provided to their groups (e.g., condensation on the outside of a cold soda can). The teacher instructs the groups to explain their respective scenarios in terms of evaporation, condensation, and water molecules.
View the clip below and then spend 5–10 minutes describing and analyzing anything you notice regarding the science content, the teaching, and/or the students. Explain the issues and/or questions that the video raised for you. Use complete sentences.
You can use the paper copy of the video transcript while you are watching. Looking at the transcript after you watch the video can help you review what you have just watched.

Pedagogical Content Knowledge
Before Professional Development“There seemed like many students in the classroom as it was quite noisy. I thought that the teacher was helping the students a little too much to complete their sentences. When the teacher was trying to say something, the students kept interrupting and not letting her complete her sentences. However, the same thing was happening when the students were trying to say something. I thought that the students should be raising hands when they want to say something so that they might be able to share their ideas and listen to others to get more ideas. Since this was their 3rd lesson I would like to see how much they could explain things on their own, and then help them to complete what they are trying to explain.”

Pedagogical Content Knowledge
After Professional Development“The teacher in clip three engages students in activities that highlight science ideas and that are explicitly linked to science ideas. The teacher links weather, erosion, and deposition as processes that wear down the Earth’s surface. The main learning goal is apparent even if it is not directly stated. The main learning goal is weathering, erosion, deposition, and earthquakes are contributing factors that change the Earth’s surface. The teacher asks elicit, probing and paraphrasing, and challenge questions throughout the lesson to get a better understanding of student knowledge and to push their understanding further. More probing and challenge questions are asked in the group circle. Examples of challenge questions can be found at 49:41, 50:05, and 50:11. The activities including quick writing, peer sharing, and group sharing are linked to science ideas and also link science ideas to other science ideas in the discussions. The content representations are scientifically accurate and aid in students’ accurate understanding of the science ideas. The lesson is content rich including specific vocabulary and facts. Mr. Potter also does a great job synthesizing and summarizing at the end of the lesson.”

Impact on Practice
• Hardest to change• Teachers are using STeLLA strategies in the
classroom,not just in their science teaching

Next Steps
• Dissemination• Mediation analysis: folding in teacher PCK and teacher
practice measures to examine how teacher learning and practice predict student learning
• Moderation analysis with student demographics• Examining which STeLLA strategies were most
predictive of student learning • Studies in different contexts• Qualitative analyses• PD leader studies

STeLLA Contributes to Knowledge about Effective PD: Beyond the Consensus Model
• The PD program is guided by a theory of teacher learning.• The program substance is organized around a conceptual
framework.• Science content learning is intertwined with analysis of
practice.• Analytical tools and videocases support collaborative, deep
analysis of science teaching, student learning, and science content.
• There is an internal coherence of program form and substance.
• Learning is directed and scaffolded by knowledgeable PD leaders.

Conclusions
• The consensus model is not enough to guide the design of professional development opportunities that will support NGSS.
• The STeLLA line of research contributes to building a research-based model of effective PD—beyond the consensus model.
• More strong lines of research on effective PD are needed.
