4 Demand for Middle-Skill Workers Outpaces Tennessee s Supply In 1950, 60% of jobs were classified as unskilled, attainable by young people with high school diplomas or less. Today, less than 20% of jobs are considered to be unskilled. One result: The demand for middle- and high-skilled workers is outpacing the state s supply of workers educated and experienced at that level. 81% of Tennessee s jobs are middle- or high-skill (jobs that require some postsecondary education or training). Yet only 32% of Tennessee s adults have some postsecondary degree (associate s or higher). Sources: Carnevale, Anthony P. and Donna Desrochers (2003). Standards for What? The Economic Roots of K-12 Reform. Education Testing Services. ; Skills to Compete. National Center for Higher Education Management Systems, analysis of 2009 American Community Survey. 4
5 The Jobs of Tomorrow Tennessee should be preparing students for the jobs of tomorrow, not the jobs of yesterday or even today. A quarter of American workers are now in jobs not even listed in the Census Bureau s occupation codes in Given the growth of new job sectors most notably green jobs it is common sense to provide all students with a strong foundation that keeps all doors open and all opportunities available in the future.

9 THE COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS (CCSS)
10 Why we need the CCSS We need them because Disparate standards across the states Global, not neighborhood competition For many young people, high school wasn t preparing them for college or careers Why the CCSS Are Important Prepares students with knowledge and skills to succeed in college and career Ensures consistent expectations regardless of a student s zip code Provides educators, parents and students with clear, focused guideposts Offers economies of scale 10
11 Common Core State Standards Design Building on the strength of current state standards, the CCSS are designed to be: Focused, coherent, clear and rigorous Internationally benchmarked Anchored in college and career readiness* Evidence- and research-based *Ready for first-year credit-bearing, postsecondary coursework in mathematics and English without the need for remediation. 11
12 Key Advances in English Language Arts and Literacy Focus and coherence Coherent progressions develop literacy skills across grade levels. Focus on text complexity in reading Students required to read texts of increasing complexity College and career readiness in writing Students required to write using evidence from informational reading Literacy as Shared Responsibility Literacy skills in reading and writing included in history/social studies, science, and technical areas 12
13 Key Advances in Mathematics Focus and coherence Focus on key topics at each grade level. Coherent progressions across grade levels. Balance of concepts and skills Content standards require both conceptual understanding and procedural fluency. Mathematical practices Foster reasoning and sense-making in mathematics. College and career readiness Level is ambitious but achievable. 13
14 45 States + DC Have Adopted the Common Core State Standards * Minnesota adopted the CCSS in ELA only 14
15 THE CCSS FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS AND LITERACY IN HISTORY/SOCIAL STUDIES, SCIENCE, AND TECHNICAL SUBJECTS
16 Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects College and Career Readiness (CCR) Anchor Standards Overarching standards for each strand that are further defined by grade-specific standards Grade-Level Standards in English Language Arts K-8, grade-by-grade 9-10 and grade bands for high school Four strands: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Standards are embedded at grades K-5 Content-specific literacy standards are provided for grades 6-8, 9-10, and
17 Overview of Reading Strand Reading Progressive development of reading comprehension; students gain more from what they read Emphasize the importance of grade-level texts that are of appropriate difficulty and are increasingly sophisticated ( staircase ) New emphasis on informational texts and reading in the content areas (shared responsibility for literacy) Incorporating a particular type of informational text literary nonfiction into ELA classes Focus on independent, close reading of texts and supporting analyses of texts with evidence 17
18 Overview of Text Complexity The CCSS define a three-part model for determining how difficult a specific text is to read: 1. Qualitative measures levels of meaning, structure, language conventionality and clarity, and knowledge demands 2. Quantitative measures readability and other scores of text complexity 3. Reader and Task background knowledge of reader, motivation, interests, and complexity generated by tasks assigned Reader and Task 18
19 Grade-Level Progression Format of standards highlights progression across grades 19
20 Overview of Writing Strand Writing Expect students to compose arguments and opinions, informative/explanatory pieces, and narrative texts Focus on the use of reason and evidence to substantiate an argument or claim Emphasize ability to conduct research short projects and sustained inquiry Require students to incorporate technology as they create, refine, and collaborate on writing Include student writing samples that illustrate the criteria required to meet the standards (See Appendix C for samples of student writing) 20
21 Overview of Speaking and Listening and Language Strands Speaking and Listening Focus on speaking and listening in a range of settings, both formal and informal academic, small-group, whole-class discussions Emphasize effective communication practices Require interpretation and analysis of message as presented through oral, visual, or multimodal formats Language Include conventions for writing and speaking Highlight the importance of vocabulary acquisition through a mix of conversation, direct instruction, and reading To be addressed in context of reading, writing, speaking and listening Media and Technology are integrated throughout the standards. 21
22 Overview of Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Reading Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Knowledge of domain-specific vocabulary Analyze, evaluate, and differentiate primary and secondary sources Synthesize quantitative and technical information, including facts presented in maps, timelines, flowcharts, or diagrams Writing Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Write arguments on discipline-specific content and informative/explanatory texts Use of data, evidence, and reason to support arguments and claims Use of domain-specific vocabulary 22
