Making the Common Core Standards Work de Robert J. Manley

Making the Common Core Standards Work

Autor Robert J. Manley, Richard J. Hawkins
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 noi 2012

Autorii Robert J. Manley și Richard J. Hawkins fundamentează această lucrare pe o vastă experiență în administrația școlară și cercetare, oferind o perspectivă de tip „practitioner-scholar”. Robert J. Manley, cu un doctorat în administrație educațională și o carieră de peste două decenii în funcții de conducere, propune o abordare pragmatică a standardelor Common Core State Standards (CCSS), privindu-le nu ca pe un prag greu de atins, ci ca pe fundamentul necesar pentru educația secolului XXI.

Subliniem modul în care lucrarea depășește simpla prezentare a reglementărilor, concentrându-se pe procesul de redesenare a strategiilor instrucționale. Ne-a atras atenția structura riguroasă a cărții, care pornește de la necesitatea alinierii la o economie globală (Secțiunea I) și avansează spre operaționalizarea ideilor directoare în cadrul școlii. Autorii explică detaliat cum pot liderii școlari să utilizeze diversitatea facultății și a elevilor pentru a diferenția instruirea, abordând totodată impactul politicilor publice și al problemelor multiculturale.

În contextul operei autorului, Making the Common Core Standards Work continuă direcțiile explorate în Leadership for a Global Economy și Designing School Systems for All Students, rafinând conceptele de leadership adaptativ și echitate educațională. Lucrarea acoperă aceeași arie tematică precum Leading the Common Core State Standards de Cheryl A. Dunkle, dar se diferențiază printr-o abordare mai sistemică, punând un accent sporit pe modelul de leadership „loose versus tight” și pe integrarea literacy-ului social și emoțional în curriculumul de matematică și engleză.

Descriere scurtă

Many educators and researchers view the Common Core State Standards as very high standards for schools to achieve. In truth, the standards are the basic standards for the 21st Century. Educators, at every school, need to learn how to redesign their curriculum and their instructional strategies so that the common core state standards are absorbed into the local curriculum. Inside the authors discuss:
"How to merge the Common Core State Standards and local curriculum in English Language Arts and Mathematics
"The challenges that educators face at local schools and in their communities
"A way for school district and school leaders to take advantage of the diversity among faculty, parents and students to differentiate instruction and achieve higher levels of mastery for all students
"Multicultural issues, school improvement systems and public policy changes that must be addressed
This book provides practical advice, examples, and design considerations that are modifiable for any culture, school, or district that is serious about being part of the new age of American achievement and prosperity.

Recenzii

"Making the Common Core Standards Work provides a detailed approach to systems thinking and how to manage a real-life paradigm shift. Having that coached in the context of core standards is somewhat unique and provides an opportunity for enhanced dialogue across grade levels and disciplines in areas of the country where those discussions may not have occurred on their own."
"Making the Common Core Standards Work looks at the implementation of CCSS within the context of all of the components that face public schools, and, in doing so, put the CCSS in a proper perspective. This is a book that could actually help make a difference in the improvement of instruction in the public schools."
"The book is easy to read and offers concrete suggestions without establishing walls that prohibit creative practices. Making the Common Core Standards Work pushes educators to plan, reflect, and revise cooperatively to move from a traditional scripted approach of teaching to one that promotes critical thinking and analysis for all students."
"As a busy superintendent who is very careful with her time, I’ve been searching for what seemed to be an impossible … one resource that is full of good, solid research and practical information on CCSS. Manley and Hawkins are practitioner scholars…and they created, in Making the Common Core Standards Work, exactly what I need to intelligently and confidently move my district forward …thanks!"
