Trang 1The Common Core State
Standards for Mathematics
Trang 2Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM):
Are world-class
Can potentially elevate the academic
performance of America’s students
Most states have a long way to go:
some less
Teachers and parents overwhelmingly
support them
But we must convince students as well

Trang 8CCSSM Congruence and NAEP Mathematics Performance
States with past mathematics standards that were more
similar to the CCSSM had statistically significantly higher NAEP 2009 performance.
Trang 9How Standards May Affect Student Achievement

Student Achievement
Trang 10Standards Relationship to Student Achievement
Is Influenced by
Instructional support materials
produced by state, e.g., teacher guides
Professional development for teachers
sponsored/authorized by state
Assessments and assessment
cut-points that support state’s standards
Trang 11CCSSM Congruence and NAEP Mathematics Performance
The change in the R-square
between a model including only
the congruence measure to one
that adjusted the congruence
measure for the NAEP cut points
yielded a 12% increase.

Trang 17Teachers Thoughts about CCSSM
After reading sample CCSSM topics for
their grade, ~80% say CCSSM is
“pretty much the same” as their
former standards
If CCSSM places a topic they currently
teach in a different grade only about
¼ would drop it
Trang 18Teachers Sense of Preparedness to Teach CCSSM Topics
Grades 1-5: About ½ feel well
prepared to teach their topics
Grades 6-8: Around 60% feel well
prepared to teach their topics
High School: Around 70% feel
well prepared to teach their topics
