Common Core State Standards Draft Released

As part of the Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI), the draft K-12 standards are now available for public comment. These draft standards, developed in collaboration with teachers, school administrators, and experts, seek to provide a clear and consistent framework to prepare our children for college and the workforce.

I notice that technology skills are firmly embedded into each level.  Unfortunately, the standards are still tied to grade levels - I had hoped to see a progression for individual learning - how will this change our schools?

You can comment after you check them out at http://feedback.corestandards.org/s-gwid2-233754
