The problem is that we have been working on reforms in science education for decades now.  As just one example, AAAS launched Project 2061 in 1985, so they've been at it almost 30 years with 50 to go.  The question is whether projects like theirs and many others have made a difference, and if not, why not?  Are we misdiagnosing the problem?  Is NGSS the long-awaited answer?
