Abstract
In order to develop an alignment between the GLOBE Program and NGSS it is essential to understand that GLOBE is more than the sum of its individual protocols. Classroom implementation of GLOBE engages students in the development of scientific investigations using GLOBE protocols to collect data and GLOBE activities to develop scientific concepts important to making sense of the data. GLOBE Certified Teachers receive professional development that includes how to follow a GLOBE protocol to collect accurate and precise data and how to build a classroom investigation upon one or more protocols in order to engage students in the GLOBE Model for Student Scientific Research. The Model is an essential part of GLOBE implementation. Students who robotically complete protocols and collect data without asking their own questions, evaluating the data in light of their own observations, and coming to their own conclusions about what the data means are not fully engaged in GLOBE.
