?? Why are CCSS Important ??

The primary aim of education is not to enable students to do well in school, but to help them do well

in the lives they lead outside of

school.

Critical Components Of The CCSS

and New Assessments

Common Core State StandardsCommon Core State Standards

• Fewer• Clearer

• Higher

• Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards

• Internationally benchmarked so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society

• State led- coordinated by NGA Center and CCSSO

Common Core Standards Criteria

• Raise the bar for all students

• All students are prepared for all entry-level, credit-bearing, academic college courses in English, mathematics, the sciences, the social sciences, and the humanities.

• All students enter these classes ready for success (defined for these purposes as a C or better).

Key Points in Key Points in Speaking and Listening Speaking and Listening

Students should gain, evaluate, and present increasingly complex information, ideas, and evidence through listening and speaking as well as through media.

Increase opportunities for informal discussion where students collaborate to answer questions, build understanding, and solve problems.

Key Points in MathKey Points in Math

Focus and coherence• Focus on key topics at each grade level.• Coherent progressions across grade levels.Balance of concepts and skills• Content standards require both conceptual

understanding and procedural fluency.Mathematical practices• Foster reasoning and sense-making in

mathematics.College and career readiness• Level is ambitious but achievable.

High School - ModelingHigh School - Modeling

Linking mathematics and statistics to everyday life, work, etc.

Use appropriate mathematics and statistics to:• Design a movie theater with unimpeded viewing angles. • Develop pricing schemes for a record store, • Determine how to evenly illuminate a room, • Determine how to seat friends and enemies at the United Nations

Next Generation Assessments

In September 2010, the U.S. Department of Education awarded two grants:

– Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC)

– Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC)

Participating states will administer new assessment statewide by 2014-2015

Through-course and Summative assessments using online computer adaptive technologies

• Efficiently provide accurate measurement of all students, across the spectrum of knowledge and skills

• Incorporate performance tasks and events• Will assess full range of CCSS in English language arts and

mathematics• Describe both current achievement and growth across time,

showing progress toward college- and career-readiness• Scores can be reliably used for state-to-state comparability, with

standards set against research-based benchmarks • The option of giving the summative tests twice a year.

Our Work in Desoto County

• Facilitate a 3-year transition from current standards and assessments to the new Common Core Standards (CCS) and Next Generation Assessments

• Build deep understanding of and commitment to the new CCS and Assessments

• Support Schools in planning, goal setting, deep professional development, and implementation

49

• Correlate current standards and assessments to the new CCS and Assessments to identify gaps

• Adjust curriculum to address the new requirements

• Enhance current instructional and assessment practices to increase capacity from the district to the classroom level

• Develop and implement a process to monitor ongoing adherence to plans and goals

2010-11
