Summary Article 3:
Endacott, states recently United States schools are undergoing the largest education
change in their history. The process was directed by the National Governors Association
Center. First, it is revealed that this change has been enforced by the American Common
Core State Standards (CCSS) implementation. Teachers are vital in the classroom setting.
They create and proctor test, assist students one on one when struggling, and give
examples of difficult material, yet they were not included in creating the CCSS.
Secondly, he reveals that studies have shown teachers that teach third grade or
lower have less complaints and less stress because they do not have to follow state
standardized test rules. Teachers that have been teaching for a large number of years
struggle with the changes more so than teachers with less experience. Finally, he states a
total of 20 states have withdrawn from tests related to the CCSS. Teachers have felt
attacked and unimportant in the process, which has led to an unsuccessful result of the
CCSS. It is believed teachers along with students should be involved with future changes
in the education system. Receiving feedback from teachers and including their view
points in the process will allow the system to be improved in the future.
