The ASN provides tools and databases that enable access to and interaction with the authoritative collection of learning and content standards from states and national content groups.
Organizations that provide services, applications, or portal access to digital collections, or who conduct research involving learning standards face their own set of challenges. Without an authoritative collection
American students even in low-performing states like Alabama do better on math and science tests than students in most foreign countries, including Italy and Norway, according to a new study released yesterday. That’s the good news.
The bad news is that students in Singapore and several other Asian countries significantly outperform American students, even those in high-achieving states like Mass
About a quarter of Massachusetts high school students who took state exams in biology, chemistry, physics, and technology and engineering in the spring flunked the tests, highlighting a need for improved science education, state officials said.
Lo these many years later, the council has admitted, more or less, that it goofed. In a report released Tuesday, the council, confronting "inconsistency in the grade placement of mathematics topics as well as in how they are defined and what students are expected to learn," laid down a new law restoring "old school" values. The multiplication table... is to be drilled into kids' heads again.
In 2006, the NCTM released “Curriculum Focal Points,” a report urging that math teaching in kindergarten through eighth grade focus on a few basic skills, largely reversing the controversial stand taken in the landmark 1989 standards document which launched the math wars of the 1990s and 2000s.[1] Francis Fennell, president of the council played down the degree of change the new report...
This site is designed to help districts and schools plan and evaluate the systemwide use of educational technology. What value does technology bring to our nation's schools? How can our schools ensure a return on these investments? Why does technology work in some schools and not in others? EnGauge, a Web-based framework, provides deep insights into these critical questions.
