Science & Engineering Practice

The National Research Council notes that scientific investigation and engineering design both require special skills specific to each practice. They differ in that scientific inquiry is focused on answering questions through investigation, whereas engineering design involves solving problems through the construction of systems and models. To highlight the importance of STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) for students, efforts are being made to strengthen the engineering aspects of Next Generation Science Standards. This encourages students to see how many aspects of life can be improved with a thorough understanding of these practices

Science & Engineering is a practice that is devoted to improving the quality of science and engineering education. We provide a framework for K-12 science education that is based on the Next Generation Science Standards. This framework is designed to foster the development of high-quality evidence-based science and engineering practice by emphasizing inquiry-based instruction, integrating engineering literacy, and ensuring that students connect recommended practices to their daily lives.


If you are looking to improve the quality of science and engineering education, then you should consider the Next Generation Science Standards. This framework is designed to help students learn more about inquiry-based instruction, engineering literacy, and how to connect recommended practices to their everyday lives. Science & Engineering is committed to helping students succeed in these areas and we hope that you will consider our framework when planning your lessons.
