The LCAP Toolkit for STEM Advocates was developed by California STEM Learning Network (CSLNet) in partnership with The Lawrence Hall of Science at the Univ. of California, Berkeley. The toolkit is designed to help districts strengthen supports for science and STEM education as they develop their Local Control and Accountability Plans (LCAP). Go to the CSLNet website to download the toolkit resources at http://www.cslnet.org/what-we-do/policy-advocacy/local-control-accountability-plan/

 NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE ASSESSMENT

Next Generation Science Assessment (NGSA) is a set of projects that are designing formative assessments for classroom use aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards. NGSA is a collaborative effort between four organizations: SRI International’s Center for Technology in Learning, Michigan State University’s CREATE for STEM Institute, The University of Illinois at Chicago’s Learning Sciences Research Institute, and The Concord Consortium. Our tasks can be viewed through the NGSA portal.
