  3. Basis for Changehttp://www.ncpublicschools.org/acre/basis/ In 2008, following extensive input from the Blue Ribbon Commission on Testing and Accountability, the State Board of Education crafted the Framework for Change - 27 recommendations to change dramatically the scope of the Standard Course of Study, assessments and testing.

  4. Direction fromFramework For Change Long-Term Goal 1: Overhaul the K-12 SCOS to focus on essential standards in order to narrow and deepen the state’s curriculum • Articulation at each grade level • Infusion of 21st century skills • Reflection of rigor, relevance, and relationships May 2008

  5. What are the Essential Standards? • The essential standards will be those skills, understandings and learning experiences that a student must master at each grade level to move to the next grade level. • Essential standards are the "must have" goals of the curriculum and will help teachers focus on the higher-order knowledge and skills that all students should master. • This should resolve the "inch-deep and mile-wide" concern about North Carolina's current Standard Course of Study and ensure that every student learns essential content and skills for the 21st Century.
