The DOE in Maine is working hard planning and preparing for the next generation of science standards. This is a super exciting time to be part of envisioning the future of science education in Maine...one of the lead states in the country working with the framework. The Maine Environmental Education Association will be involved in this process and will attempt to keep all our members appraised of the developments that arise.
Anita Bernhardt from the DOE has created a wonderful blog that keeps all educators up to date about the framework. Please follow her blog at http://scitechframework.wordpress.com. I will also be blogging about the framework this year as it relates to the EE work we are all dedicated to improving and keeping relevant to education in and out of the classroom. As a classroom teacher myself, understanding new standards and the way they are developed is a continual challenge. I hope to follow this effort closely as the work unfolds in the next couple of years. Keep following this blog for more info as well!
