WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

What Does It Take to Make It Stick? Reimagining 3D Thinking 

The 131st Annual STANYS Conference in Syracuse is your roadmap for navigating the New York State Science Learning Standards (NYSSLS). This year, we’re moving beyond the "what" of the standards to master the how—bridging the gap between theory and transformative classroom practice. By weaving isolated disciplines into a cohesive, interdisciplinary tapestry, we mirror the interconnected nature of our world. Join us to explore innovative pedagogy and meaningful student engagement through the lens of 3D thinking and Crosscutting Concepts.  CTLE credit is available. To receive credit, please ensure you complete all session attendance forms.​
