Many teachers of science in the United States are now moving and re-aligning curriculum to meet the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). These standards are 3 dimensional and include not only Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCI), but also Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs) and Cross-Cutting Concepts (CCC). I think the standards are fantastic, but somewhat daunting to grasp for most teachers.
Has anyone had any experience with aligning their GIS-based lessons with these new 3-D standards? I'd like to know where people think the GIS lessons best address the NGSS SEPs and CCCs.
