8. Vision for Social Studies Education Social Studies education for the 21 st Century must equip learners with the dexterity of mind to question, evaluate and communicate what is necessary to become active, productive and engaged citizens in a culturally diverse, democratic society.

S=Stance. What is your current opinion of these standards? W=Worries. What do you find worrisome about these standards?

18. PGES September Timeline connection: Student Growth Goal-setting

19. PGES Target I can use a resource to share a vision of a meaningful student growth process.

20. One Teacher’s Story

21. How did Mark progress his thinking about student growth? How does Mark’s experience compare to what you notice in your district? What can you take away from his experience to support a meaningful SG process for your teachers?

23. A 3D science learning experience (sort of) Waves and their application for information transfer

25. Reliably communicate? What three dimensions are combined in this performance expectation? How might you expect to see this performance expectation implemented in the classroom?

28. Gathering, Reasoning, Communicating Lesson and assessment planning organized around these core ideas of practice Instruction-driven assessment design.

29. Vision for science assessment: 2014-15 is the year each grade is to begin full implementation of the new Science Standards in Kentucky. In order to do this effectively--that is, in the spirit they are intended—we must prepare to SHIFT…shift our thinking about what it means to know and to teach/learn science— both for us as educators and for our students. We must prepare to engineer learning environments that require students to GATHER, REASON, and COMMUNICATE scientifically—across “3 Dimensions”.

30. Vision for science assessment: As we engineer these experiences, we must focus PRIMARILY on what the STUDENTS WILL BE DOING versus what the teacher will be doing. We must remind ourselves that it isn’t enough to have STUDENTS telling WHAT or THAT (something is, is not, etc.)—we must ensure that STUDENTS’ LEARNING is SHIFTED to EXPLAINING—REASONING-- (using evidence)à addressing WHY and HOW.

31. Vision for science assessment: We’ll SHIFT our ideas about what constitutes acceptable evidence of student attainment of the standards—and design “lesson ideas” that are “consciously congruent” to the intent of the standards and ASSURE that acceptable and sufficient evidence of student understanding results. AND—as a result of our work to create such a model—we’ll transform our SYSTEM of ASSESSMENT for Science statewide—beginning in the classroom!
