Common State Standards
Common State Standards aim to provide equal education opportunities and better prepare students for college by building curriculum around consistent grade-level expectations in core subjects like English and math. They impact K-12 schools, teachers, students, and communities by forming the basis for state standardized tests and influencing education budgets and policies. While debated, proponents argue they promote fairness and high learning standards, though states and the nation continue legislative efforts to implement the standards successfully.

Pitt 9 19
The US education system has made some gains in student achievement over the past 20 years but still lags behind many other developed nations. It struggles with large achievement gaps between student subgroups. While several common reform approaches have been tried, such as increased school accountability, choice, and changing governance structures, the evidence does not clearly show these have significantly improved the system. A better approach may be focusing on continuous improvement of teaching quality through professional development and support structures.

20131118 Alger A Candid Look at Common Core
This document discusses concerns about the Common Core standards initiative. It summarizes that while the goal of Common Core was to provide consistent education standards, there are growing concerns that it will negatively impact students, schools, and state budgets. Specifically, experts warn that the Common Core standards lack rigor and are not more rigorous than previous state standards. There are also concerns that Common Core is being used to advance political agendas and includes objectionable materials. Common Core implementation costs are much higher than originally estimated and may hinder customized learning approaches.

Common Core
I) Introduction
A. Common Core is an educational tool that should not be used in our public schools.
B. Common Core is unconstitutional and is a disadvantage for teachers as well as students and their parents.
C. Although some people believe that Common Core has been a great model and useful for education, it is an unnecessary program to have in schools and needs to be eliminated for several reasons.
II) Body
A. Common core is unconstitutional.
· Common Core was not a concept done by the Department of Education (DOE).
· It was created by a company named Achieve, Inc. and released under two private associations, the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO).
· Educational responsibility has been taken away from the states and local districts.
B. Common Core has not been embraced by teachers very well.
· Many teachers have had to adapt their style of teaching to accommodate the Common Core curriculum.
· It only focuses on three specific subjects such as Mathematics.
· Focuses more on “critical thinking” rather than knowledge.
C. It is not beneficial for students and their parents.
· Parents have a difficult time helping their children with homework because they do not understand the methods used to solve the problems.
· Prepares students more for the workforce, rather than college.
III) Refuting Opponents Arguments Comment by Author: You list opposing arguments, but you did not provide refutations.
D. States win more money
· States that implement Common Core have the chance to compete for Race to the Top money and a better chance at a No Child Left Behind Waiver.
E. Prepares students more efficiently
· Students who are taught Common Core are more prepared for college than others.
F. Statewide standards benefit students from other states
· Statewide based school standards allow teachers to assist better students who move frequently and are constantly changing schools.
IV) Conclusion
G. While for some Common Core is a success, it is still a nuisance that needs to be eliminated. It takes rights away from teachers, parents and schools.
H. A Disaster For Libraries, a disaster for Language Arts, a Disaster for American Education. Comment by Author: Not sure how this will play out, but just be sure that this does not present itself as new information. Comment by Author: Comment by Author:
I. Finally, there is no evidence that having national standards and increasing testing have improved student learning in the past.

VVSD CCSS Community Forum Presentation Oct. 2013
This document provides information about community forums being held by the Valley View School District to discuss the Common Core State Standards. It includes an agenda with introductions from district leadership and explanations of interactive technology tools being used. There is a survey for attendees to complete. The forums will explain why new standards are needed, provide a basic understanding of the Common Core, and describe upcoming changes to state assessments. Attendees are encouraged to ask questions. Follow-up workshops will be held in November for parents to learn more about teaching and assessments in their child's grade level.
Common core vers 1
The document provides information about the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) including:
1. The CCSS are an effort by states to define common standards in K-12 education to prepare students for college and careers regardless of which state they live in.
2. The standards were developed through collaboration between experts, teachers, and others and have been adopted by 45 states and territories.
3. Implementing the new standards will require changes to curriculum, assessments, teacher professional development, and may require additional funding for technology and other resources.
4. While the CCSS aim to increase rigor, consistency, and college and career readiness, some critics argue they may be difficult to implement effectively within schools facing budget

Superpowers - Empowering Narrative Making in Others
This document outlines a two-day workshop for students to design superheroes based on disabilities. On day one, students brainstorm superpowers related to disabilities, develop persona sheets for characters, and storyboard their ideas. They then create low-fidelity prototypes. On day two, students add interactivity to their prototypes using Makey Makey and Scratch kits. They present their functional superhero prototypes to an audience including people with disabilities. The workshop is inspired by designers who view disabilities as super abilities and uses techniques like care-based learning and embodied cognition.

Education & Technology In japan
Japan has a strong science and technology sector, with 22 Nobel laureates in physics and chemistry. It relies heavily on nuclear power, with 55 reactors providing 34% of its electricity. While the automotive and electronics industries are highly developed, the country's K-12 education system has been slow to adopt technology, despite high expectations. There is a debate around balancing traditional moral education versus teaching skills needed for a globalized economy. Recent reforms aim to foster creativity and individuality in schools to better prepare students for competitive 21st century jobs.

Media jamming and spectacle
The document discusses media spectacles according to theorists Douglas Kellner and Guy Debord. It states that over recent decades, spectacles have become one of the main organizing principles of the economy, politics, society, and everyday life. Specifically, it notes that the Internet-based economy uses spectacles to promote and sell commodities, while media culture proliferates more sophisticated spectacles to engage audiences and increase profits. Entertainment has also increasingly permeated news and information, leading to a popular "infotainment" culture.
Personal Influence
This document discusses the personal influence that people have on how mass communications are received and their effects. It examines how interpersonal relationships and social ties can change the way individuals are impacted by media like movies, music, radio, and news. Through case studies, it explores how children who enjoy certain genres may seek out peer relationships related to that, how social pressure from friends can influence music interests, and how planned listening groups are more impactful than isolated consumption of radio broadcasts.
