These standards are based on the Framework, which was developed under the auspices of the Board on Science Education at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Together, these two documents provide guidance for improving science education that both builds on previous national standards for science education and reflects research-based advances in learning and teaching science.

In response to the need for more coordination across these efforts, the Board on Science Education at the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a public workshop on June 27–28, 2017. The workshop focused on the development of instructional materials that reflect the principles of the Framework and the NGSS, as described in the planning committee's Statement of Task (see Box 1-1)

The planning committee also sought to learn ways to apply lessons learned in English Language Arts and mathematics to science education. ORGANIZATION OF THIS PROCEEDINGS The workshop was organized by an independent planning committee in accor dance with the procedures of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
