Date: Wednesday, June 8, 2011 Time: 2:00 p.m. ET / 11:00 a.m. PT Duration: 1 hour. In an ever-changing education landscape, a shift is taking place in academic standards. Formally released on June 1, 2010, the Common Core State Standards Initiative provides teachers and parents with a common understanding of what mathematics students are expected to learn as well as appropriate benchmarks for all students, regardless of where they live. The challenge for educators is understanding how we got here and how to translate this initiative into action at the classroom and school level. Join Dr. Francis (Skip) Fennell, current L. Stanley Bowlsbey Professor of Education and Graduate and Professional Studies at McDaniel College and Past President of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, as he examines the Common Core State Standards for mathematics and their practical application. This webinar is targeted to both curriculum staff and administrators concerned with the transition to Common Core State Standards.
