This four-day institute prepares participants to use tools developed by the NextGen Science Storylines project to teach with, adapt, or design NGSS storylines that are coherent from the student's perspective. In a coherent storyline, students help plan and manage investigations rather than simply follow instructions. Storylines support students in developing ideas over time, motivated by questions about real-world phenomena and problems, where each step is an attempt to address a question or gap in the classroom's current explanations or design solutions. These tools help participants analyze or develop units that incorporate the teaching strategies needed for coherent storylines, and have been used to design four middle school and high school units (from NextGen Storylines and OpenSciEd) that have been awarded Achieve's NGSS Design Badge.
