Climate change and the three dimensions of the Next Generation Science Standards
Dimension 1: Practices Asking questions (for science) and defining problems (for engineering) Developing and using models Planning and carrying out investigations. Analyzing and interpreting data. Using mathematics and computational thinking. Constructing explanations (for science) and designing solutions (for engineering). Engaging in argument from evidence. Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information. Achieve, 2013
Dimension 2: Cross-Cutting Concepts Patterns Cause and effect: Mechanism and explanation Scale, proportion, and quantity Systems and system models Energy and matter: Flows, cycles, and conservation Structure and function Stability and change Achieve, 2013
