Oregon Common Core State Standards

1. Oregon Common Core State Standards Foundation of the Oregon Diploma

2. Common Core State Standards 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, and to reflect the knowledge and skills that 21st century youth will need for success in college and careers. With all students academically prepared for the future, our state and our nation will be best positioned to compete successfully in the global economy.

Common Core State Standards: Why? • 63% of jobs nationwide will require some postsecondary education by 2018 • 64% of Oregon jobs will require postsecondary education; of those: • 54% vocational training, certification, or associate degree • 46% bachelor or graduate degree Source: Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, June 2010

5. The Instructional Core Principle #1: Increases in student learning occur only as a consequence of improvements in the level of content, teachers’ knowledge and skill, and student engagement. Principle #2: If you change one element of the instructional core, you have to change the other two. Richard Elmore, Ph.D., Harvard Graduate School of Education
