1. K-12 DEPARTMENT HEAD/TEACHER LEADER WORKSHOPS IN VISUAL ARTS, MUSIC, DRAMA AND DANCE Ilikai Hotel, Pacific Ballroom December 1, 2005

2. STANDARDS-BASED EDUCATION

3. STANDARDS-BASED EDUCATION ICEBERG Student Achievement Standards Rubrics for Grade Level/Course Benchmarks (Quality Indicators) Standards-based Curriculum Mapping Standards-Based Instruction Standards-Based Assessment Standards-Based Courses Recommended Standards-Based Textbooks/Programs Standards-Based Grading Standards-Based Report Cards Standards-Based Hawaii State Assessment Standards-Based Promotion Policy TBA

4. When we started the Standards-Based Education journey in 1994, we did not realize that this initiative would catalyze a revolutionary change in how we teach, assess and grade - in short, causing a systemic change in education.

5. Most important, the implementation of standards-based education requires that the following beliefs be translated into practice in every classroom: • Quality education for ALL children. • ALL children can and want to learn.

6. HCPS System& csss Vision of a Public School Graduate NCLB Act 51 AYP Strategic Plan Benchmarks HSA Standards-Based Grading Standards-Based Report Card

7. Hawaii’s Standards-Based Education and Comprehensive Student Support Systems

8. HCPS - PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE • HCPS I 1994 1,544 standards • HCPS II 1999 139 standards (10 content areas) • HCPS III 2005 75 standards (9 content areas)

9. HCPS II vs. HCPS III: MAJOR DIFFERENCES HCPS III: • contains content and performance standards-those which can be measured. • does not contain items which are related to instruction/instructional pedagogy. • clearly delineates what concepts and/or skills which need to be taught and mastered at the specified taxonomic level for a specific grade level - that is why the same concept and/or skills are/is NOT repeated until mastery at a new taxonomic level is required. • establishes the taxonomic level at which students need to demonstrate proficiency. • provides a rubric for each benchmark. • provides benchmarks by courses for secondary schools.

11. HCPS III DEVELOPMENT SPECIFICATIONS FOR McREL • HCPS II ~ Eliminate overlaps, redundancies ~ Ensure consistent grain size • Compare HCPS II essential standards and benchmarks with: ~ highly regarded standards documents from other states and make recommendations to align, add/delete ~ national foundational documents (NCTM, TIMSS Results and Analyses) • Provide recommendations for strands and topics that organize the standards and benchmarks

13. TIMELINE FOR DEVELOPMENT OFK-12 PROMOTION POLICY • Convene K-12 Promotion Policy April 2005 Task Force • Complete K-12 Promotion Policy November 2005 (Draft) - Present to the Regular (Postponed until Education Committee decisions on SB-report card finalized.) (Review Summer School Policy and explore the need for Intersession School Policy. This would be followed with development of a comprehensive intervention program.)

14. DECISION ON CURRICULUM MAPPING PROGRAMS • Meeting held on Friday, March 4, 2005 • Decisions: ~ Since data is web-based, it appears that the data can be migrated to the DOE system once the system has been built. ~ Therefore, complex areas may purchase the services from the vendor if desired. ~ Research on establishing a vendor list is being conducted. • Lotus Notes based program will be developed
