Math Groups Plan to Offer Common-Standards Help

Article Tools

Some of the leading mathematics education organizations have teamed up with the forces behind the common-core standards to help educators make the transition to those standards.

The new Mathematics Common Core Coalition includes the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, the National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics, the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators, and the Association of State Supervisors of Mathematics.

The Council of Chief State School Officers and the National Governors Association, which were driving forces behind the common standards, are also involved, along with the two state consortia that have federal funding to design assessments for the standards.
