Scientific Literacy: K-12 Benchmarks and Standards and You Faculty Development Workshop April 19, 2013 Donna L. Pattison, PhD Instructional Professor Department of Biology & Biochemistry

K-12 Benchmarks and Standards: 1. What are they? 2. How are they created? 3. How are they applied at the K-12 level? 4. Why should college educators care and how do we use them? Today’s Discussion:

Project 2061 Project of American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), The National Research Council (NRC), and NSTA Science for All Americans (1989) Benchmarks for Science Literacy (1993) Atlas of Scientific Literacy: Mapping K- 12 Science Learning National Science Education Standards (1996) NRC: The National Academies of Science Next Generation Standards (2013) Based on the 2011 NRC report A Framework for K-12 Science Education: Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Core Ideas Project of American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), The National Research Council (NRC), and NSTA Teams from 26 states Major Literacy Projects

79 th Texas Legislature, 3 rd Session, House Bill 1: Required Texas Education Agency (K- 12) and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (College/University) to establish vertical teams to develop College and Career Readiness Standards. Standards approved in 2008.

BIOL1361 Lecture 1 and 2: Introduction and Themes (Chapter 1) Objectives: Students will be able to identify overarching themes in biology and will be able to organize information into a hierarchy. Students will recognize the following concepts: 1. Organisms interact with the environment and each other. 2. Energy is required for life. 3. Structure and function are related. 4. Biological systems can be regulated by positive or negative feedback. 5. Many concepts in biology can be explained by looking at life through the lens of evolutionary biology. 6. Science is hypothesis driven. Alignment with College and Career Readiness Standards: V. Cross-Disciplinary Themes D. Classification 1. Understand that scientists categorize things according to similarities and differences. VI. Biology E. Classification and taxonomy 1. Know ways in which living things can be classified based on each organism ’ s internal and external structure, development, and relatedness of DNA sequences. F. Systems and homeostasis 1. Know that organisms possess various structures and processes (feedback loops) that maintain steady internal conditions.
