Welcome to the world of the 21st century digital native learner:

![Page 3: Common Core State Standards: Changing the Game Lucille E. Davy, Senior Advisor June 27, 2011](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e255503460f94b146bc/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Can Common Standards Really Change the Game?
• Challenging content standards• Instructional materials – including open source• Assessment systems with very different items• Aligned teacher preparation• High quality professional development
![Page 4: Common Core State Standards: Changing the Game Lucille E. Davy, Senior Advisor June 27, 2011](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e255503460f94b146bc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why Common Standards?• Disparate standards across states• Changing demands of entry level workers –
jobs that are growing require more skills• Too many students leaving high school
unprepared for college and career• Opportunity for better instructional materials,
assessments and professional development

Important Distinction
Standards ≠ Curriculum
• Standards are statements of skills
• Curriculum is the roadmap used to teach
![Page 6: Common Core State Standards: Changing the Game Lucille E. Davy, Senior Advisor June 27, 2011](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e255503460f94b146bc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Criteria for Common Standards
• Fewer and clearer• Aligned with college and workforce
expectations• Based on research, evidence and the best
state work

Advances in the ELA Standards
• Explicit reference to text complexity

Advances in the ELA Standards
• Clear vertical progressions across grades• Balance of literature and informational
texts • Building background knowledge• Literacy standards for history/social studies
science and technical subjects – content teachers also responsible for literacy skills

Advances in the Math Standards
• Eliminate the “mile wide – inch deep” approach
• Require conceptual understanding and computational fluency
• Focus in the early grades on arithmetic, operations, properties and fractions
• Clear progressions across grades

Advances in the Math Standards
• High school focus on applying math to solve complex and real world problems
• Develop understanding of real world applications and data in middle and high school years
• Optional path described for students interested in STEM-focused college programs and careers

Two Assessment Consortia
• Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium– “governing” states include NC, WA, OR, CA, MI – common summative– formative tools teachers can use for
informal ongoing assessment– online adaptive with phase-in
• PARCC
![Page 19: Common Core State Standards: Changing the Game Lucille E. Davy, Senior Advisor June 27, 2011](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e255503460f94b146bc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium
• Summative tests include performance tasks requiring application of knowledge and skills
• Capitalize on the strength of computer adaptive testing
• Teachers involved in developing and scoring constructed response and performance tasks
• Accurate measure of progress towards college and career ready

Transition
• New standards may have a different cognitive demand
• Tests will be aligned and will measure higher order skills
• Accountability will be based upon new expectations
![Page 21: Common Core State Standards: Changing the Game Lucille E. Davy, Senior Advisor June 27, 2011](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/56649e255503460f94b146bc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What may be different in classrooms?
• New emphasis on more informational texts• Attention to increasing text complexity• Writing that goes beyond narratives• Application of math skills to real world
problems• Focus on critical thinking and analysis
