It is important for us to know what Michigan’s public thinks about these expectations for learning in Social Studies.

The Social Studies K-8 and High School Content Expectations are now open for Public Comment through June 29, 2007.

Surveys

• Multiple surveys are available to allow for different levels of analysis, including– Individual grade level or course/credit Comment on expectations by section

(strand, standard, era, region)– Grade span (K-8, HS, K-5, 6-8, 6-HS, K-HS) General comments regarding overview of

multiple grades/courses/credits.

Surveys

• Reviewers may respond to any combination of these surveys, but are encouraged to review expectations and respond to surveys for at least one individual grade or course/credit and for one grade span.

• Content expectations and survey documents can be accessed for printing from this slide presentation.

RIGOR – appropriate level of intellectual demand CLARITY – clearly written, logical, easy-to-use SPECIFICITY – specific enough to convey performance level FOCUS – emphasize most important content PROGRESSION – knowledge and skills build on previous learning

and prepare students for subsequent learning COHERENCE – convey unified vision of social studies
