Common Core Update
 Rigorous,
research-based standards for
English-language arts and mathematics
for grades K-12
 Designed to prepare the nation’s
students with the knowledge and skills
needed for success in college and the

In 2009, the Council of Chief Sate School
Officers (CCSSO) and the National Governors
Association Center for Best Practices (NGA
Center) committed to developing a set of
standards that would help prepare students
for success in college and career
In September 2009, College and Career
Readiness standards were released
This work became the foundation for the
Common Core
Common Core Update
A
voluntary state-led initiative
coordinated by Council of Chief State
School Officers and National Governors’
Association
 Includes parents, educators, content
experts, researchers, national
organizations and community groups from
46 states, 2 territories and the District of
Columbia
 Alaska, Minnesota, Texas and Virginia not
currently participating

Senate Bill 1 (SB x5)
Established an Academic Content
Standards Commission (ACSC) to develop
mathematics and English-language arts
standards
85% of the standards had to be CCSS
15% additional standards from the State
Common Core Update
 The
Common Core Standards are
expected to align with the National
Assessment of Educational Progress
(NAEP) framework

Common Core Update

Major study using three alignment indices comparing
Common Common to California Standards:



Categorical Concurrence: the extent of overlap or
match between the comparison standards and the
Common Core standards.
Depth of Knowledge Consistency: a comparison of
cognitive demand of matched content between the
sets of comparison standards and the Common Core
standards.
Breadth of Coverage: how broadly matched
comparison standards cover content elements of the
Common Core standards.
