Understanding Georgia's Shift to Common Core Georgia Performance Standards (CCGPS)

Georgia's transition to Common Core Georgia Performance Standards (CCGPS) aims to align educational standards across states, ensuring students acquire essential skills for career and college readiness. This change addresses disparities in educational standards and prepares students to compete globally. With rigorous content, coherence across grades, and a focus on both literature and informational texts, the CCGPS enhances reading and mathematical proficiency. This initiative benefits students, teachers, and parents by creating consistent expectations and improving overall educational outcomes.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Why is Georgia Making the change to CCGPS?

  2. Why do we need common standards? Why now? Disparate standards Different skills Global competition Preparation for career/college

  3. Why is This Important for Students, Teachers, and Parents? College and work readiness Consistent expectations across the nation.

  4. Key Features of the Standards • Rigorous content with application • Evidence and research • Internationally benchmarked

  5. ELA Shifts • Complex texts, quality, range • Evidence that reading is anchored in the college and career readiness (CCR) standards. • Rich reading of literature as well as extensive reading in science, history/social studies, and other disciplines.

  6. Informational Text(increased importance in Common Core)

  7. Mathematics Shifts • Focusstrongly where the Standards focus • Coherence: Think across grades, and link to major topics within grades • Rigor: Require fluency, application, and deep understanding

  8. Common Core for Mathematics Standards for Mathematical Content • K-8 grade-by-grade standards organized by domain • 9-12 high school standards organized by conceptual categories Standards for Mathematical Practice • Describe mathematical “habits of mind” • Offer standards for mathematical proficiency: reasoning, problem solving, modeling, decision making, and engagement • Connect with content standards in each grade

  9. Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC)

  10. PARCC Timeline SY 2012-13 First year pilot/field testing and related research and data collection SY 2013-14 Second year pilot/field testing and related research and data collection SY 2014-15 Full administration of PARCC assessments Summer 2015 Set achievement levels, including college-ready performance levels SY 2010-11 Launch and design phase SY 2011-12 Development begins
