  7. Understanding Why We must understand WHY we must act before we can know HOW to act. We must define College & Career Readiness so we understand why the Common Core Standards are so important.

  8. To be on track today for college and careers, students need to show that they can analyze and solve complex problems, communicate clearly, synthesizeinformation, apply knowledge, and generalize learning to other settings. (U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan)

  9. Major Shifts in Educational Practice • Increase in text complexity • Increase in use of nonfiction • Increase in domain-specific vocabulary • Increase in evidence-based, persuasive writing • Increase in use of text-dependent questions • Increase in cognitive demand and critical thinking

  10. College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for Reading Key Ideas and Details Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text. Determine central ideas or themes of a text and analyze their development; summarize the key supporting details and ideas. Analyze how and why individuals, events, and ideas develop and interact over the course of a text.

  11. Vision: The “Why are we doing this?”to combat confusion Skills:Skill sets needed to combat anxiety Incentives: Reasons, perks, advantages to combat resistance Resources: Tools and time needed to combat frustration Plan:The direction to eliminate the treadmill effect . Professional Development Your implementation plan should include professional development to foster teachers’ skills in these areas.

  12. Remember . . . • Not everyone will change (it’s OK). • Resistance is ugly. • Build advocates and identify change agents.

  13. Three Stages of Learning Anxiety • Denial It won’t happen. It’s a passing fad. 2. Scapegoating and passing the buck Those Common Core people don’t know what we face in the classroom. I’m retiring—I don’t need to do this. 3. Maneuvering & bargaining My kids can’t do this. The standards aren’t developmentally appropriate. (Wirth, 2004)

  14. Remember… You must address the EMOTION of change before you can master the OPERATION of change.

  15. Marzano.. Moving Towards Mastery Effective Supervision (2011) • Of Marzano’s “Four Domains”, the first domain – Classroom Strategies and Behaviors – involves more than half of the Marzano model. • Direct causal link with student achievement.
