An Overview of the Standards Movement.
Lewis, Anne C.
Phi Delta Kappan, v76 n10 p744-50 Jun 1995
Discusses the standards movement, several standards categories (content, performance, equal-opportunity, and world-class), state and professional standard-setting activities, ongoing controversies, teacher participation opportunities, and need for public support. The New Standards and Equity 2000 projects provide linkages to standards-based reform efforts. Transition to higher-content standards requires substantial district investment. (12 references) (MLH)
