This document outlines the framework for the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) developed from 2010 to 2012. It emphasizes three intertwined dimensions: Scientific and Engineering Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Disciplinary Core Ideas across various science disciplines, including Life, Physical, and Earth/Space Sciences. The document aims to enhance performance expectations and educational practices, preparing users to engage with the complexities of science education in the 21st century. The NGSS adoption in Washington is expected by early 2014, aiming for comprehensive assessment by 2017-18.
