How We Connect to Standards

All PLTW pathways address Next Generation Science Standards and Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and English Language Arts.

Additionally, the PLTW Computer Science pathway connects to Computer Science Teachers Association Standards; the PLTW Engineering pathway connects to International Technology and Engineering Educators Association Standards for Technological and Engineering Literacy; and the PLTW Biomedical Science pathway connects to National Health Standards.
