What should our children learn in school? And what do we need to provide to support that learning?
This chapter explores the “stuff” of schooling, such as the facts and skills we want children to learn (the standards), the tools we use to deliver it (the curriculum), the way we actually teach (pedagogy), and how we know whether kids are learning (assessments). This stuff matters. It reflects our collective expectations. It also provides a framework for evaluating whether our schools are getting the job done, from math and reading to civics and civility.
