Today at 2 p.m. EDT, I’ll be moderating an online chat on the latest common standards movement, which is now being undertaken by 48 states. And we need your questions!

My guests are Dane Linn, the education division director of the National Governors Association’s Center for Best Practices, and Alan Farstrup, the former executive director of the International Reading Association. Linn’s group is helping spearhead this latest effort, alongside the Council of Chief State School Officers. Farstrup has been-there done-that, as he was active in similar efforts in the 1990s.

If you can’t join us for the live chat, submit a question now. Or check back later for an archive of the chat.
