What is the purpose of college and career readiness standards?
- The purpose is to make sure students are completely ready to begin college and a career with a firm foundation of knowledge.
What are the benefits and challenges of the shift to reading and writing non- fiction texts?
- Most of what we read in college and careers are informational texts, so students need to learn to read and understand these to be adequately prepared.
- One challenge is that these are sometimes complex texts and a student must be fully prepared and taught to understand them.
- A benefit is that reading all of these informational texts can help them to become better writers, as the abilities to read and write are related.
What are the benefits and challenges of having standards for science, social studies, and technical subjects?
- All children are being taught the same things and are able to go comfortably from state to state without having to be put in remedial classes.
