Does your school or district have evidence of the impact of technology on student learning?
College level expectations

In “Getting Prepared” a 2010 report on recent high school graduates who took development/remedial courses, MnSCU Chancellor Jim McCormick said “Our colleges and universities are working hard to make sure high school students and teachers clearly understand the level of readiness necessary for success in college.”

Do you agree that the reason 45% of Minnesota recent HS graduates who enrolled in public higher education in the state need to take at least 1 remedial course is because students and teachers have not understood the college level expectations?

Do you think your district should have a goal to create common formative assessments?
Do you think Minnesota high school students should be required to take a fully online course in their high school career?
Do you support the movement to national common core standards?
Is there a sense of urgency in your school district for elementary science staff development?
End-of-course assessments should substitute for MCA-II tests.

This site is a clearinghouse of resources intended for educators in leadership positions.
