A comprehensive and coherent set of mathematics standards for each and every student from prekindergarten through grade 12, Principles and Standards is the first set of rigorous, college and career readiness standards for the 21st century. Principles and Standards for School Mathematics outlines the essential components of a high-quality school mathematics program. It emphasizes the need for well-prepared and well-supported teachers and administrators, and it acknowledges the importance of a carefully organized system for assessing students’ learning and a program’s effectiveness. Principles and Standards calls for all partners—students, teachers, administrators, community leaders, and parents—to contribute to building a high-quality mathematics program for each and every student.

Continuing its tradition of mathematics education leadership, NCTM has undertaken a major initiative to define and describe the principles and actions, including specific teaching practices, that are essential for a high-quality mathematics education for all students.

The use of highly effective instructional practices in mathematics is the most productive way to improve a student’s mathematics achievement. When used in concert with effective instruction, personalized learning (PL) software is an invaluable tool that educators can use to both improve their instruction and more fully meet each students’ needs. It should not be used to replace Tier 1 instructional time (see the Utah Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) for Mathematics framework), but rather to help the educator meet their objectives and student meet learning goals. Using mathematics software as a stand-alone solution for students’ mathematical studies results in them not receiving many of the benefits that high-quality instruction in a collaborative classroom provide (including high depth of knowledge experiences, peer collaboration, the use of meaningful mathematical discourse, and others). Care must be taken to ensure each and every student has equitable access to software supports.

In this Google Applied Digital Skills lesson, students will learn how to respond to questions in Google Classroom.

Content review is a deep dive into the resources from the learner’s perspective to determine suitability and accessibility of the materials for a group of learners based on the learners’ analysis and the rigor of the standard(s). Instructional trouble spots are identified through the content review. Instructional trouble spots are where students may have difficulties in learning. The teacher needs to address and plan for trouble spots in the content area and instruction.
