Tools for Schools: Standards in Practice
Printer-friendly versionStandards in Practice (SIP) is an on-going, diagnostic professional-development tool that focuses teachers on improving the rigor and relevance of the assignments they give their students, while at the same time diagnosing students’ strengths and weaknesses. SIP is a six-step process that helps teachers provide targeted instruction to students, resulting in improving student achievement. The goal of SIP is to ensure that assignments are standards-based, on grade level, and to ask students to apply or analyze complex content and ideas. This session will provide an overview of SIP and related Ed Trust tools for schools. It’s interactive, so come prepared to participate!
