Common Core: What it Means for Students and Teachers

10 am

Starting this school year, Ohio teachers and students are working with a new set of educational standards called the Common Core. Proponents say it helps students learn to think critically. But opponents fear a loss of teacher autonomy. We’ll learn what the Common Core is-- and isn’t-- and weigh what it means for Ohio students and educators.

Guests:

• Jim Siegel, reporter for Columbus Dispatch
• Marc Schare, member of Worthington Board of Education
• Kelly Kohls, president of Ohio School Board Leadership Council
