Introduction
The National Science Education Standards were published by the National Academy Press in 1996.
Americans have long treasured children as our greatest national resource. We know that children who are educated have a brighter future - and they represent the future of ourselves, our Commonwealth, and our country. That is the reason that public education was forged - to enable children to participate effectively in our society as citizens. But our education system was designed early in this century - and times have changed.
The challenge facing education is to help students take their places and succeed in an increasingly complex world. In the past several years in Pennsylvania, there has been growing concern that too many children are leaving school without the skills they need to become productive adults. It has become clear that improvement is needed.
One way that educators, parents, and members of the wider community in Pennsylvania have accepted that challenge is to help students learn at higher levels than ever before. Standards are critical steps to meet the challenge.
Standards define what each student should know and do in a core set of subjects. They provide consistent targets for students, teachers and parents to meet.
Standards define what each student should know and do in a core set of subjects. They give students a solid foundation in the basics and provide consistent targets for students, teachers and parents. Standards allow schools to measure student achievement. They help parents, teachers, schools and school districts follow the progress that students make from year to year. Done right, aligned standards and assessments give us something that standards and curriculum objectives, by themselves, never delivered: the ability to see how well we are performing and how much we are improving.
Over 350 people throughout the Commonwealth assisted in the development of the standards. They included parents, business and community leaders, teachers, higher education professors, school administrators and Department of Education staff. In developing the Pennsylvania Academic Standards, the development committees reviewed and used national benchmarks, other states' standards and international academic standards.
This Curriculum includes principle components of Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and/or Social Studies. Each subject area encompasses basic and performance-based skills.

The Applications of Learning (1999) curriculum offers kindergarten through grade 12 objectives for the Application and Analysis levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. EdVISION developed this curriculum based on extensive research of standardized and state tests. Additional objectives were added to enhance the content areas.
