  1. Adding It All Up How will the Georgia Performance Standards for Math impact my child’s instructional future? The 7 year process of implementing the mathematics GPS curriculum began in 2005-2006.

  2. WHY a new curriculum? Phi Delta Kappa Audit • Age of QCC • Lack of: • Depth and Rigor • Alignment of Instruction and Assessment • Alignment to International Standards • Student Focus

  3. WHO was involved? • High School Advisory Committee • Senior Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs of the Board of Regents • Board of Georgia Council of Teachers of Mathematics (GCTM) • Regents Academic Advisory Committee on Mathematical Subjects • System-wide groups of high school mathematics chairs • Public Review • State Board of Education unanimous vote of approval

  4. Strengths of the Curriculum Aligned to National and International Standards • National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Standards (NCTM) • National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) • Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) • New Scholastic Aptitude Reasoning Test (SAT) • The Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) • Common Core State Standards

  5. Accolades • Overall Grade: • 2000: C- • 2006: B+ • Overall Rank: • 5th in the nation • Up from 21st in 2000 • One of the “most improved” set of standards in the nation.
