In this episode, Nicole talks with high school teacher Mariah Ramos about her experience as she transitioned to the NGSS and transformed her classroom. They discuss impacts on student learning, the challenges she faced and how she overcame them, and the reality that transitioning to the NGSS is a journey.  They also spend some time discussing how Mariah might outline her next NGSS unit -- a process you may want to dive into yourself.
