"It's a matter, in my view, of marrying the science and the engineering." - Dr. Cary Sneider, NGSS Writing Team Leader

The NGSS breaks from previous documents by including science and engineering standards. This presentation illustrates how an innovative, project-based high school curriculum–Engineering the Future: Science, Technology, and the Design Process–can help students develop their abilities to argue from evidence and learn core ideas about energy through engaging hands-on activities and can help you create your NGSS/STEM classroom.
