New Meridian Science Exchange: A Sensible Approach to Science Assessment

The New Meridian Science Exchange offers states the quickest, most cost-effective way to develop NGSS-aligned assessments that deeply investigate students’ scientific knowledge. Because “Good enough” is not good enough to ensure a scientifically literate workforce.

To be meaningful, science assessments must closely align to multi-dimensional standards like those set out in the NGSS and other three-dimensional science standards. In addition, these assessments must provide educators with valuable data that measures student understanding and indicates the areas where students need the most support.

That’s why the New Meridian Science Exchange is structured to build problem-solving skills and spark curiosity that will prepare students to succeed in today’s complex, knowledge-based economy.
