Overview
Standards-based learning is a great step forward for schools, but it must be implemented correctly to ensure the best educational experience possible. In this comprehensive implementation guide, the authors outline a research-backed, five-phase plan for leading transition to a standards-based grading system.
Use this book to take full advantage of academic standards and criterion-referenced forms of education:
- Develop a strong standards-based curriculum.
- Align instruction and reliable assessments to the standards.
- Change outdated grading and reporting practices to promote student learning and growth.
- Share knowledge with and seek feedback from teachers, students, families, and other stakeholders.
- Achieve a sustainable standards-based learning system that benefits all students in a school or district.
- Study implementation examples from real teachers, leaders, and schools.
