The Role of Learning Progressions in Standards-Based Education Reform

CPRE’s latest policy brief, The Role of Learning Progressions in Standards-Based Education Reform written by Frederic A. Mosher, summarizes findings from two recent CCII reports examining the concepts of learning progressions and learning trajectories as they are being applied in science and mathematics education. This policy brief reviews conclusions from the two extensive reports and discusses the implications of their findings for policy and for future research and development.

Funding for CCII's work on learning progressions is provided by Pearson Education and The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation.
