Chalk Talk: Push for National Standards
As a parent of a K-12 student you are no doubt aware of the recent shift towards more nationalized education standards. Common Core is one such nationalized curriculum that has many supporters, but also many detractors. The purpose behind the push for national standards is twofold. First, having the same standards for all students ensures more equity between schools and districts, both within states and between states. The idea is that a child that leaves fourth grade in one state can enter fifth grade in another state without missing a beat, being way behind his or her peers, or being way ahead. Secondly, nationalized standards like the Common Core heavily emphasize the development of 21st century skills. These skills are essential if students in the U.S. are to have a good chance at landing a job in a highly competitive global marketplace.
