Good article. I liked the comment!
To make positive change, there is a formula that can work.
1. The center of curriculum revolves around the Common Core State Standards.
2. Common formative assessments are developed and analyzed measuring the students' abilities of the standards.
3. An engaging and relevant content curriculum that matches the skills we are teaching our children.
4. Use proven research-based instruction in the classroom.
It sounds easy, but we tend to focus too much on content and testing as opposed to skill development.
