provide a coordinated approach, consistent communication, additional
opportunities for learning, and the ongoing supports needed for
students to be successful.

Q AND A
1. If Iowa Core S & B used for Iowa Testing Service as its source of origination, why is there
only approximately 80% alignment w/current ITBS/ITED assessments? Does this mean
ITS need to change their assessments?
2. Will there be more/effective accountability of IPDM with Iowa Core?
3. When will Chapter 12 reflect Iowa Core handouts?
4. Could Economic Stimulus funding be used for Iowa Core?
5. Suggestions for rolling out different components of stakeholders who are clueless w/o
sounding stupid.
6. An article about 46 out of 50 states using national standards?
7. How do the varying learning styles fit w/Iowa Core? Should they be grouped or should it
be the responsibility of the teacher?
8. I am getting mixed signals- timeline of implementation and what is full implementation?
9. Please honor our work-
