Description
This session will describe the process and revisions to the current NAGC’s P-12 Program Standards, such as alignment with the NAGC/CEC-TAG Teacher Education Standards, re-framing of the standards into student outcomes with evidence-based practices incorporating program and instructional characteristics, and
related empirical, literature/theory, and practice-based research.
Standards are divided into these six criterion areas: Learner Characteristics, Assessment, Curriculum Planning and Instruction, Learning Environments, Programming, and Professional Development. Time will be allotted for discussing these revisions and implications for policymakers and practitioners.
