I just wanted to share the information I received from two of the STEM Resource Teachers (one Big Island and one Maui) regarding standards alignment for curriculum development. Since there is still no statewide Science Specialist for the HIDOE, I believe these folks might have the most valuable voice on the matter.
"The HIDOE is slow to adopt the NGSS, therefore, all current curriculum development projects should align to HCPS III for Science and Common Core for Math and L.A. Integration of NGSS is still on the horizon."
These are Alan Nakagawa's words, my colleague and STEM RT for West Hawaii on the Big Island.
I'm curious if this resonates with the other HIDOE teachers on the cohort as well as everyone.
