Experts give feedback on science TEKS

LAN Update - Archive 11/12/08

As part of the ongoing effort to revise the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) the State Board of Education (SBOE) has solicited feedback from experts in the science field on the proposed revisions to the science TEKS. The revisions were developed by a review committee made up of educators, parents, business and industry representatives and employers. They have been working on the revisions since January 2008. The experts’ feedback is now available on the Texas Education Agency’s (TEA) Web site.

ATPE encourages all science educators to review the experts’ feedback and the proposed TEKS revisions and submit feedback of your own to the SBOE. The proposed revisions and instructions for submitting your feedback are also available at the link above. Don’t miss this opportunity to help shape Texas’s science curriculum.

If you have any questions, please contact ATPE Governmental Relations at (800) 777-ATPE or e-mail us at ATPE Governmental Relations.
