Author Toby Karten summarizes the reasons and research behind Common Core State Standards and other initiatives and offers recommendations for using research-based inclusion strategies, instructional supports, monitoring, reflection, and collaborative practices to give all staff and students a step-by-step, outcome-based formula. Karten highlights the ADMIRE strategic approach, focusing on ways to assess, activate, decide, delineate, model, monitor, instruct, involve, reflect, revise, engage, and enrich students and staff with the standards. Every student deserves access to a quality education, viable postsecondary options, and core knowledge. With collaborative planning, a deep understanding of rigorous standards, and Karten's valuable guidance, any school can proficiently provide just that.
