D857 Secondary Earth Science Curriculum (EDUC 3305, 3 CUs in the September 2026 WGU catalog) is the synthesis closer of the secondary earth science family: term 8 of both the B.S. Science Education (Secondary Earth Science) and the B.A. Educational Studies secondary earth science track, and one of the three courses closing the 28-CU Earth Science endorsement program for already-licensed secondary science teachers in term 3. Per the published description it teaches students to develop and evaluate Earth Science curricula for secondary education, the whole content row from Earth's processes to stars and planets fair game. Coursework Ninja completes D857 done-for-you, fixed quote in writing first. From $99. Independent of WGU.
Per WGU's published description, Secondary Earth Science Curriculum prepares students to develop and evaluate Earth Science curricula for secondary education by examining the foundational principles of Earth's processes, materials, and their interactions within the broader context of the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and the universe. The content sweep is named: the relationships between the Earth, Sun, and Moon, the dynamics of the Earth's internal and external systems, and the characteristics and life cycles of stars and planets, plus the structure and behavior of Earth's components and celestial phenomena. The purpose is stated plainly: equipping learners with the knowledge necessary to effectively teach these concepts in secondary education settings, laying the groundwork for understanding and conveying the complexities of Earth and space science, with practical examples and interactive activities building the ability to design effective curricula that foster student engagement and understanding in Earth Science.
It anchors the closing term on three tables. On both bachelor's tables, the B.S. Science Education (Secondary Earth Science) and the B.A. Educational Studies secondary earth science track, it closes the content core in term 8 beside D855 Natural Hazards and D856 Environmental Management with Lab, with the licensure table adding D852 Astronomy and D873 Laboratory Safety to that term, the last content term before the clinical and student-teaching terms that always stay with the student. On the Earth Science endorsement program, restricted by the catalog to licensed secondary science teachers, the same three courses close the 28-CU program together in term 3. The M.A. Teaching, Science Education (Secondary Earth Science) initial-licensure table runs the graduate twin D858 Secondary Earth Science Curriculum (EDUC 5330, 2 CUs) in its term 3, whose description adds evaluating and aligning curriculum resources with secondary standards and individual student needs, so quote by the code on your audit. Message us the code and where you stand, and we quote a flat price in writing.
Every full package includes the written 6-month guarantee: we finish the remaining CUs under the agreed plan, or you do not pay. Packages: Bachelor's $3,000 · Master's $3,500 · both $5,500 · single assessments from $99.
Coverage
WGU does not publish assessment formats in the catalog, and this description frames a curriculum-design course without stating the scored format. We confirm the exact component list for your catalog year at intake, and the fixed quote covers whichever assessment D857 carries, the proctoring stack included when required.
The description's verb pair is develop and evaluate: curricula for secondary education, designed through practical examples and interactive activities. Scored work written as content summary misses the curriculum-design rows entirely.
Earth's processes, materials, and their interactions within the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and the universe, plus the dynamics of the Earth's internal and external systems: the whole content row upstream is fair game inside curriculum questions.
The relationships between the Earth, Sun, and Moon, and the characteristics and life cycles of stars and planets, plus celestial phenomena: the space half of the sweep, echoing the astronomy course two rows back.
The description states the purpose: effective teaching of these concepts in secondary settings, designing curricula that foster student engagement and understanding. Answers that never mention the classroom miss the frame the rubric is built on.
D857 alone is a single from $99. On a remaining earth science or educational studies list it folds into the flat $3,000 bachelor's package, and endorsement-only plans are quoted in writing at intake on the same written terms, every remaining academic CU under the 6-month finish guarantee. Live clinical and student-teaching requirements always stay with you.

Bottlenecks
A curriculum course sounds like the victory lap of the content row, and the September 2026 catalog parks it in the heaviest closing term of both bachelor's tables. These are the stalls we take over most often.

Per the September 2026 WGU institutional catalog, Secondary Earth Science Curriculum (EDUC 3305, 3 CUs) prepares students to develop and evaluate Earth Science curricula for secondary education: the foundational principles of Earth's processes, materials, and their interactions within the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and the universe, the relationships between the Earth, Sun, and Moon, the dynamics of Earth's internal and external systems, the characteristics and life cycles of stars and planets, and celestial phenomena, all framed around effectively teaching these concepts in secondary settings and designing curricula that foster student engagement.
Per the current catalog, three tables: term 8 of the B.S. Science Education (Secondary Earth Science), term 8 of the B.A. Educational Studies secondary earth science track, and term 3 of the Earth Science endorsement preparation program, which the catalog restricts to teachers holding a current secondary science license and which it closes beside D855 and D856. If your degree plan shows EDUC 3305, this is the course.
Nearly. The M.A. Teaching, Science Education (Secondary Earth Science) initial-licensure table runs D858 Secondary Earth Science Curriculum (EDUC 5330, 2 CUs) in its term 3, and its published description covers the same develop-and-evaluate scope while adding the evaluation and alignment of curriculum resources with secondary standards and individual student needs, at one fewer CU. D857 is EDUC 3305, 3 CUs, on the bachelor's and endorsement tables. The legacy M.A. Science Education (Secondary Earth Science) table carries neither code; its curriculum and methods work sits at C618 Earth Science: Content Knowledge and C978 Science Methods - Secondary Earth Science. D858 now has its own completion page. Quote by the code on your degree audit.
No. It is a curriculum-design course in the content core, and the catalog places it before the clinical and student-teaching terms on the licensure table. Live clinical experiences and student teaching always stay with you; the written curriculum work is what we complete.

On a longer remaining bachelor's list, the bachelor's package is $3,000 flat with the written 6-month finish guarantee covering every course on the plan, this one included. Endorsement-only plans are quoted in writing on the same terms.
