        Arts and the Common Core

        Click the title to access the full report.

        “The National Coalition for Core Arts Standards (NCCAS) is currently spearheading the revision of the national standards for arts education for the first time since their creation in 1994, and this presents a significant opportunity to highlight the overlap between the Common Core’s objectives and the practices of arts-based learning. Given the central role that the Common Core standards are playing in education and school reform initiatives nationwide, it is a priority of the Coalition to ensure that the goals and objectives of the Core Arts Standards relate clearly, directly, and meaningfully to the Common Core, and that these connections are actively considered as a part of the standards writing process.”

        Reading and Writing Across the Curriculum

        Click the title to access the full article.

        The research is clear: discipline-based instruction in reading
        and writing enhances student achievement in all
        subjects. Studies show that reading and writing across
        the curriculum are essential to learning. Without strategies
        for reading course material and opportunities to write
        thoughtfully about it, students have difficulty mastering
        concepts
