Data Nuggets address science standards

The landscape of K-12 science education is shifting, moving away from rote memorization of science facts to an approach based on the process and practices of science where students are taught quantitative skills and how to construct arguments from evidence. Data Nuggets are a teaching resource that can help teachers integrate these curriculum changes into their classroom, while addressing The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), AP Biology, Vision and Change, and ACT College Readiness Standards. Data Nuggets reinforce these skills repeatedly throughout the school year and grade levels, and address all parts of the scientific process while covering core content.

Below we have a general alignment across all Data Nuggets to these science standards. If you would like a more detailed alignment for a particular activity, contact us at datanuggetsK16@gmail.com!
