National Survey of Teacher Perspectives on the Common Core

February 2013

Based on the results of an online survey, this report from the EPE Research Center provides an analysis of teachers’ views on the Common Core State Standards. The National Survey of Teacher Perspectives on the Common Core report offers important insights into survey respondents’ views regarding their awareness of the standards, the training they have received to implement them in the classroom, and a range of other related topics. Readiness to put the CCSS into practice has emerged as a critical challenge not only for individual teachers, but also for their schools, districts, and states. The report provides new information about how prepared teachers feel to teach the standards to their students and how prepared they believe their students are to master them. It also presents data on teachers’ perspectives with respect to the preparedness of the larger institutions and systems in which they work.
