    Key Curriculum has just introduced this line of webinars, so as of 01-26-2012 there are no contents to this page. However, three webinars are scheduled to be shown over the next month. I would suspect then that this page will begin filling with content.

      This shouldn't be an issue, but I don't like the word "sunset" either in that it implies a need to start over, from scratch.  Perhaps it should be stated that certain pieces will be reviewed and re-considered for a formal signing again in 2 years, after evidence is presented.

      This is posturing and politics on both sides.  Get over yourselves.

      Are teachers really "waiting to receive a curriculum from the DOE"?  That seems ridiculous.  Aren't we all working on improving the work we already do and infusing the CCSS into our learning objectives?  Has there ever really been a full curriculum handed to teachers?

      The state tests are getting more difficult this year? Yet to be seen.

      The union should come up with a better system for this.  Even if there are tough principals to work for, this is a problem.

      This writing ought to have been edited by Mulgrew and the paper.

      Framework of best practices???  What's that going to look like?  Different from UDL?

      It is insincere of you to take none of the responsibility for this.  Seriously...the union's innocent?  Where is your concession?  
  • w evaluation system for every district in the state, pointed out that hundreds of other districts have precisely these provisions, and that such provisions do not prevent the districts from getting rid of teachers who don’t measure up
  • put on the table a two-year “sunset” provision that would have negated the effects of the evaluation process
  • We are now working on a framework of best practices that the Education Department can use as part of the training system it must outline to King by Feb. 15 if it wants to avoid the loss of even more state and federal funds.
  • But if we are going to be successful, we will need people on the other side of the table who are interested in creating a system that will truly help teachers improve, not in leaving a legacy of blame.
