1. An Overview of the Common
Core Learning Standards
By Melissa Winfield
2. What are the CCLS?
The Common Core State
Standards provide a consistent,
clear understanding of what
students are expected to learn, so
teachers and parents know what
they need to do to help them. The
standards are designed to be
robust and relevant to the real
world, reflecting the knowledge
and skills that our young people
need for success in college and
careers. With American students
fully prepared for the future, our
communities will be best
positioned to compete
successfully in the global
economy.
3. What are the standards
based on?
The New Essential Standards are
written using the Revised Bloom's
Taxonomy. The RBT categorizes
both the cognitive process and
the knowledge dimension of the
standard. The cognitive process
refers to the verb used in the
standard.
Knowledge in the RBT falls into
four categories:
• Factual Knowledge
• Conceptual Knowledge
• Procedural Knowledge
• Meta-Cognitive Knowledge
