Victor Aguilar – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2023
"Geometry--Do" is a textbook about plane geometry. It will be divided into two volumes, "Geometry without Multiplication: White through Red Belt," and "Geometry with Multiplication: Blue through Black Belt. "The white- and yellow-belt chapters are neutral geometry; the remainder of "Volume One" and all of…

Barajas-López, Filiberto; Larnell, Gregory V. – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2019
In their commentary, "Toward a Framework for Research Linking Equitable Teaching with the Standards for Mathematical Practice," Bartell et al. (2017) provide a stepping-stone into the challenge of clarifying the interface between equity and standards setting in mathematics education by devising a framework that relates the "Common…

Polikoff, Morgan S.; Rabovsky, Sarah J.; Silver, Daniel; Lazar-Wolfe, Rosalynn – AERA Open, 2021
Low-income students and students of color are faced with pervasively lower levels of opportunity to learn compared with their peers, creating unequal opportunities for educational success. Textbooks, which serve as the backbone of the curriculum in most mathematics classrooms, present a potentially powerful tool to help mitigate unequal…

Friedberg, Solomon; Barone, Diane; Belding, Juliana; Chen, Andrew; Dixon, Linda; Fennell, Francis; Fisher, Douglas; Frey, Nancy; Howe, Roger; Shanahan, Tim – Thomas B. Fordham Institute, 2018
After the authors reviewed the "State of State Standards--and the Common Core--in 2010" they found that the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) were clearer and more rigorous than the English language arts (ELA) standards in 37 states and stronger than the math standards in 39 states. States were encouraged to adopt the CCSS. By 2013 the…

Aminger, Walter; Hough, Sarah; Roberts, Sarah A.; Meier, Valerie; Spina, Alexis D.; Pajela, Hani; McLean, Mandy; Bianchini, Julie A. – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
We investigated six preservice secondary science teachers' implementation of reform-based science, in particular, their teaching of the "Next Generation Science Standards' (NGSS)" science and engineering practice of "using mathematics and computational thinking." A modified version of the Task Analysis Guide in Science served…

Tampio, Nicholas – Johns Hopkins University Press, 2018
The Common Core State Standards Initiative is one of the most controversial pieces of education policy to emerge in decades. Detailing what and when K-12 students should be taught, it has led to expensive reforms and displaced other valuable ways to educate children. In this nuanced and provocative book, Nicholas Tampio argues that, though…

Achieve, Inc., 2018
Using a college admissions test as the statewide summative assessment is an attractive but risky option for some policymakers and parents. These assessments are used for admissions by nearly all higher education institutions, are shorter in length than most state-designed and consortia assessments, have brand name recognition, and are known for…

Coe, Ted; Daughtery, Miah – Achieve, Inc., 2017
This report offers an analysis of the English language arts (ELA)/literacy and mathematics standards of the 24 states that have reviewed and revised these standards after initially adopting the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). The report found most states kept their standards rigorous and maintained college- and career-ready expectations for…

Nachowitz, Marc – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2019
Using a national sample of students' writing from the National Study of Writing Instruction, this study examines the current state of writing in the mathematics classroom and the extent to which enactments align with the intentions established in the research base and curricula articulated by NCTM and the CCSS-M. Over 3,000 writing assignments…

Gao, Niu; Lafortune, Julien – Public Policy Institute of California, 2019
In 2010, California adopted the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for math and English. The new standards are part of a state effort to prepare students for college and careers in the 21st-century global economy and narrow longstanding achievement gaps. The state's implementation is complete, but because districts decide whether and when they…

Bintz, William P.; Ciecierski, Lisa M. – Reading Teacher, 2017
The Common Core State Standards for English language arts expect that teachers will use narrative and informational texts to teach content area material across the curriculum. However, many teachers at all grade levels struggle to incorporate both kinds of text, especially given the vast amount of specialized content they are required to teach.…

Emerson, Robert Wall; Anderson, Dawn – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2018
Introduction: Visually impaired students (that is, those who are blind or have low vision) have difficulty accessing curricular material in mathematical textbooks because many mathematics texts have visual images that contain important content information that are not transcribed or described in digital versions of the texts. However, little is…

Tran, Dung – School Science and Mathematics, 2016
This study examined the alignment of three selected U.S. high school textbooks series with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) regarding the treatment of statistical association. A framework grounded in the literature for inclusion and exclusion of reasoning about association topics was developed, and textbook entries were…

Orrill, Chandra Hawley – The Mathematics Educator, 2016
Suppose you were an alien trying to understand how people in the United States feel about the Common Core School Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM). You could look at the Internet, mass media, YouTube and all of the other venues available. Walking away from them, you would be very confused about whether the U.S. loves or hates the CCSSM, whether…

Chandler, Kayla; Fortune, Nicholas; Lovett, Jennifer N.; Scherrer, Jimmy – Phi Delta Kappan, 2016
The Common Core State Standards for mathematics promote ideals about learning mathematics by providing specific standards focused on conceptual understanding and incorporating practices in which students must participate to develop conceptual understanding. Thus, how we define learning is pivotal because our current definition isn't aligned with…
