Digging down to the core
Editor’s note: This is the third in a multi-part series about the new Common Core State Standards.
In June 2010, Illinois adopted a revised set of learning standards known as the Common Core State Standards, which are part of a trend toward national standards. In addition to Illinois, the standards have been adopted by every state except Minnesota, Nebraska, Texas, Virginia and Alaska.
Illinois is currently in the transition process, and the new assessment system will be in place for the 2014-15 school year.
