Standards

Link: http://www.mcrel.org/standards/index.asp

Currently, 49 states have adopted state standards and most districts are assisting schools in bringing standards-based reform to life in classrooms. As a result, practice is changing and, in many cases, student achievement is increasing. For over a decade, McREL has been in the forefront of research, practice, and evaluation related to standards-based education; we have recently been awarded standards-based classroom instruction as our national leadership area within the regional educational laboratory network. We will continue to build upon our prior experience and existing expertise, collaborate with key organizations, and work with schools, districts, and states to improve their practices and capitalize on the great potential that standards-based education holds for our students. Among the most notable of McREL's contributions to the field is a compendium of K-12 and Career Education standards. We also offer standards-related training and consulting services and the opportunity for schools, districts, and agencies to participate in the McREL Standards Consortium. In addition, McREL has authored a wide variety of publications and products related to standards, many of which can be downloaded from this site.
