A few bullets from the article:

Next Generation Science Standards were developed by 26 state governments
States are not required to adopt them
Evolutions and climate change must be taught
The focus would be helping students become more intelligent science consumers
Biology and chemistry may disappear entirely from high schools, replaced by holistic courses

I sure hope there are teachers, those who have studied and thought about teaching and learning, helping to develop these standards!
