During his forty-seven years in the field of education, he has worked with educators as a speaker and trainer and has authored more than forty books and 250 articles on topics such as instruction, assessment, writing and implementing standards, cognition, effective leadership, and school intervention. His books include The Art and Science of Teaching, Leaders of Learning, On Excellence in Teaching, Effective Supervision, The Classroom Strategies Series, Using Common Core Standards to Enhance Classroom Instruction and Assessment, Vocabulary for the Common Core, Vocabulary for the New Science Standards, Teacher Evaluation That Makes a Difference, A Handbook for High Reliability Schools, Awaken the Learner, and Managing the Inner World of Teaching. His practical translations of the most current research and theory into classroom strategies are known internationally and are widely practiced by both teachers and administrators. He received a bachelor’s degree from Iona College in New York, a master’s degree from Seattle University, and a doctorate from the University of Washington.
David C. Yanoski, EdD, is a researcher at Marzano Research in Denver, Colorado. He has worked in K–12 education as a classroom teacher, mentor coach, and teacher leader and has served on curriculum and assessment development teams. He has facilitated the development of proficiency scales with state departments of education, schools, and districts across the United States. He received his bachelor’s degree from Midland University in Fremont, Nebraska, a master’s degree in education from the University of Phoenix, and a doctorate from the University of Colorado, Denver.

Applying the New Science Standards

The Evolution of Standards-Based Education in Science
In previous decades, educators in the United States called for K–12 science standards that schools could broadly implement across the country. These requests ultimately prompted the development of comprehensive science standards such as the National Research Council’s (NRC; 1996) National Science Education Standards (NSES) and the American Association for the Advancement of Science’s (AAAS) Benchmarks for Science Literacy (1993, 2009). These documents enjoyed extensive use and adaptation throughout the U.S. and often guided the development of individual state science standards (Colorado Department of Education, 2009; Massachusetts Department of Education, 2006; Minnesota Department of Education, 2009; Wyoming State Board of Education, 2008).
However, the NSES and the AAAS Benchmarks were originally published in 1996 and 1993 respectively. In 2010, the release of the widely adopted Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in English language arts (ELA; National Governors Association Center for Best Practices & Council of Chief State School Officers [NGA & CCSSO], 2010a) and mathematics (NGA & CCSSO, 2010b) confirmed that these previous science standards
