Title:Defining college readiness: Where are we now, are where do we need to be?
Source:http://www.ecs.org/clearinghouse/01/01/22/10122...
Date:2012
Organization:Education Commission of the States
Short Description:This issue of The Progress of Education Reform considers potential ways states might define “college readiness,” identifying for each approach: potential benefits, potential drawbacks, and key components to consider.
Annotation:Some states are creating a “college readiness” definition that describes what a student will know and be able to do in such core academic courses as English language arts and math, and that identifies items or benchmarks on state assessments that demonstrate attainment of those skills and knowledge. Other states have adopted what might be considered the opposite approach, identifying a score on a national or state assessment that demonstrates a student has the knowledge and skills to succeed in college.This issue of The Progress of Education Reform considers potential ways states might define “college readiness,” identifying for each approach: potential benefits, potential drawbacks, and key components to consider.
