  6. The Standards Review Initiative-Moving from “Review to the Revision” - Structures and organization of work - Working Principles 1. Include three levels of standards • Student learning standards • Teacher knowledge standards • System infrastructure standards 2. Develop a single set of standards for each content area 3. Infuse basic and academic literacy throughout all the content areas 4. Infuse cultural aspects of literacy throughout all the content areas as appropriate 5. Infuse real life application skills throughout all the content areas 6. Develop measurable standards 7. Review PreK-12 standards within the context of a seamless P-16 continuum 8. Integrate technology throughout all the content areas 6

  7. Recommendations for Revisions • One set of standards • Replace the items currently designated as “standards” • Use the “Core Performance Indicators” and “Qualities” from the State assessment rubrics to develop revised standards • Embed literacy into all of the content areas • The study of literature and language should be emphasized and elevated as an endeavor separate from literacy • Add viewing and (re)presenting • Format revision is essential 7

  8. Aspects of Standards Revision • Viewing and (Re)presenting • P-16 Connections • Support for English language learners, special populations, and students at different developmental levels • Teacher knowledge • More specificity needed at the 9-12 level where there is currently considerable repetition of performance indicators • Assessments • Conventions and grammar 8

  9. Aspects of Standards Revision(cont.) • Reading-writing process • Early Childhood • Text based strategies • Terminology • Motivation, engagement, and volition • Ethics of communication/literacy • Understanding authorship and audience 9
