The NSTA Quick-Reference Guide to the Three Dimensions

Since its release in 2014, the NSTA Quick-Reference Guide has become an essential tool for educators across the country to explore the complex structure of three-dimensional standards, including the performance expectations (PEs) that integrate particular elements of the three dimensions (the practices, core ideas, and crosscutting concepts) together.

Archive: Science Update: Seeing the Unseeable: Imaging Black Holes with the Event Horizon Telescope, August 25, 2022

Black holes are astrophysical objects with such strong gravity that nothing can escape them, not even light.  In the past few years, the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration produced the first images of two supermassive black holes using a network of telescopes around the world.  These images allow us to test our theories of gravity and plasma physics in the universe’s most extreme environment. Join us to learn more about these images.

Genome: Unlocking Life’s Code provides free lesson plans and storyline units to help guide high school students as they explore various genetics and genomics concepts. Units will culminate in community-focused projects.

In this session, participants will be introduced to a playlist that addresses the same Disciplinary Core Ideas as the Food Allergy Storyline Unit (LS1.A Structure and Function and LS3.A Inheritance of Traits), but in a shorter three-lesson sequence that does not include a project.
