Common Core standards reform

shared by Chris Harrow on 25 Apr 12 - No Cached
  • A quiet, sub-rosa fear is brewing among supporters of the Common Core State Standards Initiative: that the standards will die the slow death of poor implementation in K-12 classrooms.
  • By any accounting, the challenge of getting the nation's 3.2 million K-12 public school teachers ready to teach to the standards is enormous.

  • the fact that there are millions of people who, rather than examine the evidence and change their position, prefer to cling to what they were taught as children, is simply a fact of life
  • Americans seem particularly prone to this head-in-the-sands behavior.
  • Sure, it takes time to build those networks. But there is an audience out there of committed teachers who are eager for all the help they can get.

  • If no teacher has learned of, or been influenced by, our work, why should we expect society to continue to support us?

    Great find. I've listened to the entire discussion linked in Devlin's talk and it is fantastic.

    Over the past five years — at the request of concerned independent school educators, and with funding from independent schools and a grant from the National Institute of Mental Health — we've conducted extensive research on the experiences of African-American students in independent schools.

    Last year's report and conversation around the need for affinity group dialogue with the administrative team included statistics and plenty of personal and national stories pointing to the importance of addressing race/culture and learning, particularly as it relates to a discussion around whiteness and the culture of "niceness" within our schools. This article is 8 years old and not much has changed at many schools. Thanks for reading it! Please pass along to your team colleagues if you can?
