Supporting the development of students’ literacy skills will help them to deepen their understanding of science and technology/engineering concepts.
Students should be able to use reading, writing, and communication skills to enhance their understanding of scientific and technological/engineering text materials, including informational text, diagrams, charts, graphs, and formulas; communicate ideas; and apply logic and reasoning in scientific and technological/engineering contexts. Students should be able to use a variety of texts to distinguish fact from opinion, make inferences, draw conclusions, and collect evidence to test hypotheses and build arguments. Successful development of these skills requires explicit opportunities to develop literacy skills and knowledge.
GUIDING PRINCIPLE VII
Students learn best in an environment that conveys high academic expectations for all students.
A high quality education system simultaneously serves the goals of equity and excellence. At every level of the education system, teachers should act on the belief that young people from every background can learn rigorous science content and solve tough engineering problems. Teachers and guidance personnel should advise students and parents that rigorous courses and advanced sequences in science and technology/engineering will prepare them for success in college and the workplace. After-school, weekend, and summer enrichment programs offered by school districts or communities may be especially valuable and should be open to all. Schools and districts should also invite role models from business and the community (including professional engineers and scientists) to visit classes, work with students, and contribute to instruction.
Regardless of whether students go on to an institute of higher education or to a workplace, they should be equipped with the skills and habits required for postsecondary success. Skills such as the ability to work through difficult problems, to be creative in problem solving, and to think critically and analytically will serve students in any setting. When students work toward high expectations in these areas, they develop the foundation they need for success after graduation.
GUIDING PRINCIPLE VIII
Assessment in science and technology/engineering serves to inform student learning, guide instruction, and evaluate student progress.
Assessment reflects classroom expectations and shows outcomes of student learning based on established knowledge and performance goals. The learning standards in this Framework are a key resource for setting such knowledge and performance objectives in science and technology/engineering. Assessment assists teachers in improving classroom practice, planning curricula, developing self-directed learners, reporting student progress, and evaluating programs. It provides students with information about how their knowledge and skills are developing and what can be done to improve them. It lets parents know how well their children are doing and what needs to be done to help them do better.
Using assessment data, teachers can better meet the needs of individual students as those students work toward mastery of the Framework learning standards. Teachers should assess student progress toward desired outcomes on a regular basis through formative assessments.
