EdReports Review of Issues and Science: Third Edition Redesigned for NGSS
EdReports, an independent non-profit organization that reviews instructional materials, has published its review of SEPUP’s Issues and Science middle school science program. We are happy to announce that the program received the second-highest NGSS alignment rating of all programs reviewed to date. Issues and Science was given an overall rating of “Partially Meets Expectations,” with the underlying numerical scores just falling a few points shy of “Meets Expectations.”
EdReports’ review highlights a number of Issues and Science’s strengths, including three-dimensional design, a comprehensive assessment system, and direct presentation of phenomena and problems. The most recent version of the program, released after the EdReports review, has incorporated feedback from the report.
