  2. Why Common Core? Student Achievement • Student Achievement • Student Achievement http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lGD9oLofks@sns=em

  3. States Adopting Common Core • Effort led by NGA and CCSSO • Now have standards in English Language Arts and Mathematics • Science and Social Studies are currently being developed • 46 states and the District of Columbia • 4 states have not adopted (Alaska, Nebraska, Texas and Virginia)

  4. Next Generation Assessments • Two assessments currently being developed • PARRC • Smarter Balanced • Assessment will be administered for the first time in the 2014-15 school-year

  5. College and Career Ready (CCR) and Educator Effectiveness • Disconnect between state implementation toward CCR and state educator effectiveness work • Waiver applications are evidence of the divide • Let’s explore the bridge between the two • Aligning visions (standards) across the system • Transforming K-12 instruction to get to CCR • Evaluation and professional growth • Leveraging state teams, higher education, and a variety of stakeholders via multiple national efforts • ICCS, SCEE, TPL, CRP, etc.

  6. College and Career Ready Students who are college- and career-ready is the larger goal. • Common Core State Standards are a tool for getting us there • They define performance standards for today’s students – the WHAT • HOW we get to readiness is through effective instruction • Teaching standards define what effective instruction looks like • Leadership standards define what school leaders do to support instruction • The goal of professional development is to improve instruction

  7. A New Vision of Teaching • Developmental Continuum • A Focus on 21st Century Knowledge and Skills • Personalized Learning for Diverse Learners • Increased Emphasis on Assessment Literacy • A Collaborative Professional Culture • New Leadership Roles for Teachers and Administrators
