The Next Generation Science Standards are all about students being scientists and engineers every day in the classroom. And if a student is going to be a scientist or engineer in the classroom, if that’s going to be the mode of learning, there needs to be a purpose.

**That’s where phenomena come in.**

In this eBook, you’ll find answers to questions like:

- Why are phenomena central to a next generation-aligned instructional model?
- How do the science and engineering practices connect to phenomena-based learning?
- How is phenomena-driven learning different from more traditional isolated tasks?
