NGSX Registration for Becoming a Next-Gen Science Teacher course, Aug 15-18, 2023

The course: 

Becoming a Next-Gen Science Teacher (BNGST) prepares teachers preK-12 to engage their students in the core science practices of modeling, argument, and explanation about puzzling phenomena in the world around them.  Participants learn how to build a classroom culture for robust sensemaking, student agency, and equitable participation. Through collaboration in doing science and exploring rich video cases, participants gain a variety of tools and resources to take back to their classrooms – to learn with and from their students. This course is highly interactive and collaborative, and it centers equity and agency for students and teachers.


Becoming a Next-Gen Science Teacher is an Approved Course for Accelerating Science: Open Access Professional Learning (OAPL). Eligible Massachusetts educators may take this course at no cost, and receive a stipend. Eligible Massachusetts educators are any currently-employed MA public school educators (including administrators and instructional leaders) whose work relates to science in grades preschool through 12. Visit OAPL website to learn more.

Please read through each question or statement carefully. Eligibility for stipends and course completion is dependent on question responses.

* If you are NOT a Massachusetts educator, or if you have already registered for an NGSX OAPL course, please email nextgenexemplar@gmail.com for a separate registration form.
