Standards Implementation

The Standards-in-Action (SIA) 2.0 English Learner (EL) Training Institute shows adult educators how to provide college and career readiness (CCR) instruction to ELs. Through a mix of large- and small-group activities, that instruction simultaneously cultivates ELs' content knowledge and language competence.

The Standards-in-Action (SIA) 2.0 State-Based Curriculum Review Training offers a range of resources that state and facility administrators and instructors can use to assess the quality of their existing English language arts (ELA)/literacy curricula or instructional materials. The reviews will ensure curricular alignment with state-adopted ELA/literacy standards, the key instructional shifts, and high levels of adult learning and development.

The Standards-in-Action (SIA) 2.0 State-Based Curriculum Review Training offers a range of resources that state and facility administrators and instructors can use to assess the quality of their existing mathematics curricula or instructional materials. The reviews will ensure curricular alignment with state-adopted mathematics standards, the key instructional shifts, and high levels of adult learning and development.

The Standards-in-Action (SIA) 2.0 classroom observation system teaches you how to observe effective teaching and learning practices that reflect the crucial instructional advances in literacy. The training and tools deepen educators’ understanding of the intent and meaning of your state English language arts (ELA)/literacy standards through teacher-friendly tools. They strengthen practitioner knowledge about vital literacy content and research-based instructional strategies and their usefulness with English learners (ELs).

These two classroom videos and accompanying materials are designed to provide adult educators with models of effective standards implementation. Through these Standards-in-Action (SIA) videos, adult educators can identify instructors employing effective language acquisition teaching and learning practices required by challenging academic standards. Both videos showcase online teaching, so there are also many good examples of using a combination of technology tools and resources to engage learners and enhance learning.

The training and tools deepen educators’ understanding of the intent and meaning of your state mathematic standards through teacher-friendly tools. They strengthen practitioner knowledge about vital literacy content and research-based instructional strategies and their usefulness with English learners (ELs).

These two classroom videos and accompanying materials are designed to provide adult educators with models of effective standards implementation. Through these Standards-in-Action (SIA) videos, adult educators can identify instructors employing effective teaching and learning practices in English language arts (ELA)/literacy required by challenging academic standards.

These four classroom videos and accompanying materials are designed to provide adult educators with models of effective standards implementation. Through these Standards-in-Action (SIA) videos, adult educators can identify instructors employing effective teaching and learning practices in mathematics required by challenging academic standards.

This guide provides suggested classroom tasks that combine the academic knowledge and skills described by the College and Career Readiness Standards for Adult Education with behaviors and composite skills needed to succeed in college, workplace, and civic life (essential competencies).
