Standards Alignment Project Common Core State Standards, CTE Standards and Framework
PISA US Performance Compared to other Countries US 15 year old performance ranking for OECD countries: • Ranked 14th in Reading with a score of 500 (Republic of Korea 1st with 539 pts) • Ranked 25th in Math with a score of 487 (Republic of Korea 1st with 546 pts) • Ranked 17th in Science with a score of 502 (Finland 1st with 554 pts) Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development
State International Comparison in (Grade 8) Math • California ranked 20th with a mean score of 485 for a grade of C • C. Taipei ranked first, 598, and Rep of Korea, 597, ranked second for B+ grades • United states ranked 10th with a score of 508 for a C grade TIMSS 2007
Globally Competitive • Progamme for International student Assessment (PISA) results • TIMSS results • Response; Council of Chief State School Officers, National Governor’s Association Center for Best Practices, ACHIEVE, Inc sponsored development of CCR standards
Globally Competitive Internationally Benchmarking • Adopt & adapt practices that are in place in the top performing industrialized nations: • Finland • Korea • Japan • Netherlands • New Zealand • Switzerland
College and Career Readiness Standards • 48 states and two territories participated in writing the CCRS (except for Texas & Alaska) • Completed in September 2009 • Basis for Common Core State Standards • Designed to prepare students for both college entry and the workplace
College and Career Readiness Standards CCR (Anchor) Standards for Reading: • Key Ideas and Details • 1-3 • Craft and Structure • 4-6 • Integration of Knowledge and Ideas • 7-9 • Range of Reading and Level of Text Complexity • 10
Common Core State Standards • Officially adopted by 44 states and DC • CA State Board of Education Adopted CCSS in August 2010 • Renamed Common Core State Standards (with California supplements) • 85 percent of the standards were to consist of the CCSS with up to 15 percent additional material
Common Core State Standards Frameworks and Instructional Materials
Common Core State Standards Rigorous, Research-based • English-Language Arts K-5 • Reading • Writing • Speaking and Listening • Language • Grades 6-12 Two content area sections • English-Language Arts (all strands) • History/SS, Science and Technical Subjects (reading & writing for literacy)
Common Core State Standards Rigorous, Research-based • Mathematics • Grade 8 Algebra 1 Standards • High School Mathematics Conceptual Categories: • Number and Quantity • Algebra • Functions • Modeling • Geometry • Statistics and Probability
Common Core State Standards Two Types of Standards: • Mathematical Practice (recurring throughout the grades) • Mathematical Content (different at each grade level) • Both aim to balance mathematical understanding and procedural skill
Common Core State Standards Geometry Mathematical Practice: • Apply geometric concepts in modeling situations • Mathematical Practices • Make sense of problems & persevere in solving them • Reason abstractly & quantitatively • Construct viable arguments & critique the reasoning of others • Model with mathematics • Use appropriate tools strategically • Attend to precision • Look for & make use of structure • Look for & express regularly in repeated reasoning.

Common Core State Standards Next Steps: • Compare to ELA & Math Model Curriculum Standards (completed) • Add or adjust (15%) standards for better alignment (completed) • Grade level expectation documents (K-5 completed) • Revise Frameworks (see timeline) • Create new instructional materials
Common Core State Standards Assessment: • Two National Consortiums • Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBAC)-30 states, Washington is fiscal agent, WestEd is Project Manager, $160 million from USDOE • Partnership for the Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) -26 states, Florida is fiscal agent, ACHIEVE, Inc is Project Manager, $170 million from USDOE
Consortium Implementation Milestones SBAC PARCC
CA CTE Model Curriculum Standards & Framework Work Plan: • Form work groups to review and revise CTE Model Curriculum Foundation and Pathways Standards • Crosswalk with Career Clusters Knowledge & Skills and pathways for reference • Identify STEM content integration • Identify “Green” content integration • Consider logistics & cosmetology placement
CA CTE Model Curriculum Standards & Framework Work plan (cont’d) • Align foundation standards with CCSS enhancement • Consider adding, revising, deleting pathways • Identify or build CCSS pathway applications • Revise MCS as needed to reflect review results • Update Framework to reflect MCS revisions • Offer professional development
CCSS & CTE Model Curriculum Standards Alignment Considerations: • ELA; more than individual presentations, emphasize teams, groups, pairs • ELA & Math; demonstrate use of technology • All subjects; use similar verbs whenever possible
Literacy in Science & Technical Subjects: CTE Applications • Follow precisely a complex multistep procedure when carrying out experiments, taking measurements, or performing technical tasks. . .(11-12.RSTS.3) • CTE Application: Therapeutic Services Use the appropriate evaluation tools to assess patients and clients (HS & MT E5.1) • Place stethoscope properly over brachial artery: place cuff 1 inch above stethoscope; inflate cuff to 170 mm; slowly deflate cuff (2-3 mm/sec) while listening for first audible beat; accurately note number of that beat; continue slow deflation until beat disappears; accurately note number of last beat. • Record blood pressure accurately on chart, graph and report blood pressure outside of normal limits.
Literacy in Science & Technical Subjects: CTE Applications • Integrate & evaluate multiple sources of information. . .in order to address a question or solve a problem (11-12.RSTS.7) • CTE Application: Legal and Government Services Students understand how to formulate plans and policies to meet social, economic, and physical needs (PS B4.0) • Understand specialized investigative techniques, devices, and equipment to enhance investigation regarding compliance with laws and regulations. • Understand important ways in which information is collected, analyzed, organized, and disseminated to realize specific objectives.
Mathematics-High School:CTE Applications • Making Inferences and Justifying Conclusions Decide if a specific model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation (HS S-IC.2) • CTE Application: Collision Repair & Refinishing Students understand and apply measurement systems and mathematical functions necessary to perform required fabrication, maintenance, and operation procedures (T B3.0) • Understand industry standard measurement scales, devices, and systems used to perform design, fabrication, diagnostic, maintenance, and repair procedures. • Use mathematical functions associated with collision (estimating), repair, and refinishing.
Mathematics-High School:CTE Applications • Using Probability to Make Decisions Analyze decisions and strategies using probability concepts (HS S-MD.7) • CTE Application: Animal Science Students understand animal inheritance and selection principles, including the structure and role of DNA (A & NR D5.0) • Evaluate a group of animals for desired qualities and discern among them for breeding selection. • Understand how to predict phenotypic and genotypic results of a dominant and recessive gene pair. • Understand the role of mutations & hybrids in animal genetics
