Earth and Space Science Course
Kognityβs new course makes students active participants in the scientific process, helps them learn critical thinking, and fosters a love for exploration.
Kognity, an edtech company that bridges the gap between Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) curriculum and classroom implementation, now offers an Earth and Space Science course. The new course is part of the Kognity for High School Science curriculum, which was designed from the most up-to-date research and data, providing teachers with phenomena-based relevant and engaging content for their students.Β
The Earth and Space Science course, like the NGSS framework, emphasizes scientific inquiry and critical-thinking skills. Through exploring topics like plate tectonics or the life cycle of stars, students become active participants in the scientific process. They gather data, design experiments, and analyze resultsβall building a strong foundation for success in any STEM field. The course was designed to fill a critical gap in available content for teachers and to support students who are struggling with the sciences.
Kognity delivers NGSS-aligned curricula via a digital platform that empowers teachers with options for personalized instruction. Easy adoption improves schoolsβ consistency, while the variety of interactive, phenomena-based content fuels student engagement in class, online, and at home.
Overcoming the challenges of scaling down Earth and Space Science to fit classroom explorations, Kognity has created a rich and engaging learning experience. Kognity meticulously unpacked standards, experimented with bundling, and integrated them with phenomena to create strong, cohesive units that promote deep learning.
