Kognity for High School Science presents phenomena-based science in an easy and flexible way, empowering teachers to bring science to life with confidence. Whether teachers use the content to spark ideas or dive in and adopt the full curriculum, Kognity’s lessons can be seamlessly integrated into existing plans for courses on biology, chemistry, physics, and, starting in the 2024–25 school year, Earth and space science.

Crafted by experts and built specifically for the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), Kognity’s rigorously vetted science content supports teachers in implementing complex standards. The curriculum includes embedded and color-coded performance expectations (PEs), crosscutting concepts (CCCs), science and engineering practices (SEPs), and disciplinary core ideas (DCIs) throughout. 

All Kognity lessons are rooted in a natural phenomenon. A curated Driving Question Board inspires a student-led and teacher-guided classroom and acts as a stepping stone into phenomena-based learning, which helps students make meaningful connections to real-life situations and become more engaged in their learning. Kognity’s Media Library features more than 220 videos, 740 images, 650 interactives, and a reading assistance tool that supports more than 130 languages.  

Teachers also have easy access to activities, teacher guides, lesson plans, and assessments designed to improve test scores by familiarizing students and teachers with content and performance in CCCs, SEPs, and DCIs. This saves teachers time grading three-dimensional learning and helps track student progress with reliable data.

In addition to its alignment with NGSS standards, Kognity for High School Science meets the ESSA Level IV (Demonstrates a Rationale) requirements of evidence standards. 

Kognity integrates with all major learning management systems, including Canvas, Schoology, Microsoft Teams, and Google Classroom. From task management to rostering, these LMS integrations automate time-consuming processes for convenience and ease.
