The Pennsylvania Science Matters e-Blast October 2016 issue highlights two resources related to the Smithsonian Science Education Center. Cheryl Rush Dix will present at the Pennsylvania Science Teachers Association (PSTA) Conference November 30 - December 2, 2016 and will discuss the implementation of a K-12 science program based upon the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for the Erie School District. Cheryl will share lessons learned in developing the curriculum, professional development, and implementation of the new curriculum based on the Smithsonian Science Education Center's Theory of Action. Also referenced in the e-Blast is the November 1, 2016 webinar co-hosted by the Smithsonian Science Education Center, the Department of Energy, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which provided resources, tools, classroom materials, and PD opportunities for P-12 science educators.
