You might also want to share this with an even wider world by sharing with the K12 Instruction group. <A href="http://geonet.esri.com/groups/k12-instruction/">Join that group</A>, then you can share this item with it by clicking "Share".</P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 02 Oct 2016 17:15:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/t3g-questions/gis-and-ngss/m-p/847921#M343 CharlieFitzpatrick 2016-10-02T17:15:07Z Re: GIS and NGSS https://community.esri.com/t5/t3g-questions/gis-and-ngss/m-p/847922#M344 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>We sort of do this with our project. We have principles for Geospatial Inquiry, which we have aligned with 7 elements of ambitious science teaching (ambitiousscienceteaching.org) and Science Practices. We moved away from science-specific so it would apply more generally, but I'd be happy to share them with you or talk some more offline&nbsp;<A href="http://www.pod-stem.org">www.pod-stem.org</A></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 28 Oct 2016 19:49:51 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/t3g-questions/gis-and-ngss/m-p/847922#M344 LoriHare 2016-10-28T19:49:51Z
