State Curriculum Frameworks in Mathematics and Science
Author: Rolf K. Blank
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
A majority of states are now involved in developing, revising, and implementing state frameworks in mathematics, science, and other core subjects. The Council of Chief State School Officers completed a one-year study of 60 current state curriculum frameworks in mathematics and science. The purposes of this study were to define and describe state mathematics and science curriculum frameworks, evaluate the role of frameworks in systemic reform, and assist states with development of new frameworks. Chapters in this report reflect key aspects of the design of the study, including: (1) a survey of states to identify frameworks and collect information about state context; (2) a content analysis of key elements of the frameworks using definitions and categories developed in the study; and (3) a qualitative review of specific aspects of recent frameworks by teams of experts. The value of frameworks is as follows: one-half of frameworks link content to teacher professional development; frameworks can provide a rationale for use of technology and tools in classrooms; frameworks can help explain an approach to systemic reform; and frameworks can assist schools in evaluating curriculum organization and resources. Appendices include Elements for Analyzing State Curriculum Frameworks, Definitions of Categories and Concepts for Conceptual Mapping of State Frameworks, Questions for a Qualitative Analysis of State Frameworks in Mathematics and Science, and Sample Vignettes. Contains 34 references. (MKR)

Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309142393
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
