Whether you want to open your chakras, connect with your intuition, or learn how to come from a place of love, the very first step is to learn more about your dominant chakra type.

An ebook is one of two file formats that are intended to be used with e-reader devices and apps such as Amazon Kindle or Apple iBooks. A PDF is a digital representation of the print book, so while it can be loaded into most e-reader programs, it doesn't allow for resizable text or advanced, interactive functionality.
The eBook is optimized for e-reader devices and apps, which means that it offers a much better digital reading experience than a PDF, including resizable text and interactive features when available. If an eBook is available, you'll see the option to purchase it on the book page. View more FAQ's about Ebooks. Each report has been subjected to a rigorous and independent peer-review process and it represents the position of the National Academies on the statement of task.
Science, engineering, and technology permeate nearly every facet of modern life and hold the key to solving many of humanity's most pressing current and future challenges.
The United States' position in the global economy is declining, in part because U. To address the critical issues of U. A Framework for K Science Education outlines a broad set of expectations for students in science and engineering in grades K It is autonomous in its administration and in the selection of its members, sharing with the National Academy of Sciences the responsibility for advising the federal government.
The National Academy of Engineering also sponsors engineering programs aimed at meeting national needs, encourages education and research, and recognizes the superior achievements of engineers.
Charles M. Vest is president of the National Academy of Engineering. The Institute of Medicine was established in by the National Academy of Sciences to secure the services of eminent members of appropriate professions in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the public.
The Institute acts under the responsibility given to the National Academy of Sciences by its congressional charter to be an adviser to the federal government and, upon its own initiative, to identify issues of medical care, research, and education. Harvey V. Fineberg is president of the Institute of Medicine.
Functioning in accordance with general policies determined by the Academy, the Council has become the principal operating agency of both the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering in providing services to the government, the public, and the scientific and engineering communities.
The Council is administered jointly by both Academies and the Institute of Medicine. Cicerone and Dr. Vest are chair and vice chair, respectively, of the National Research Council. A Framework for K Science Education represents the first step in a process to create new standards in K science education.
The impetus for this project grew from the recognition that, although the existing national documents on science content for grades K developed in the early to mids were an important step in strengthening science education, there is much room for improvement.
Not only has science progressed, but the education community has learned important lessons from 10 years of implementing standards-based education, and there is a new and growing body of research on learning and teaching in science that can inform a revision of the standards and revitalize science education.
In this context, the Carnegie Corporation of New York, together with the Institute for Advanced Study, established a commission that issued a report entitled The Opportunity Equation, calling for a common set of standards in science to be developed. The Carnegie Corporation has taken a leadership role to ensure that the development of common science standards proceeds and is of the highest quality by funding a two-step process: first, the development of this framework by the National Research Council NRC and, second, the development of a next generation of science standards based on the framework led by Achieve, Inc.
We are grateful for the financial support of the Carnegie Corporation for this project. This framework builds on the strong foundation of previous studies that sought to identify and describe the major ideas for K science education. The framework is also informed by more recent work of two of our partner organizations: the AAAS in Project especially and the National Science Teachers Association particularly the Anchors project.
Achieve, Inc. We look forward to working with these organizations in the dissemination and implementation of the vision of science and engineering education that the framework embodies. Of particular note is the prominent place given to the ideas and practices of engineering. As presidents of the National Academy of Sciences and National Academy of Engineering, we are pleased to convey this report to interested readers.
We believe that the education of the children of this nation is a vital national concern. Moreover, an ever-larger number of jobs require skills in these areas, along with those in language arts and mathematics.
We thank the committee and the many consultants and NRC staff members who contributed to this effort, as well as the thousands who took the time to comment on the draft that was made public in July That input contributed substantially to the quality of this final report. Vest, President , National Academy of Engineering. T ogether with the rest of the committee, I thank the many individuals and organizations who assisted us in our work, without whom this study could not have been completed.
