• The 1994 Standards are nearly 20 years old, a normal revision cycle is 6 to 8 years
• To reflect the 21st Century needs of students, teachers, parents, and administrators
• Emphasis on Common Core subject areas for federal accountability system + STEM subjects is marginalizing arts learning
• To re-assert that the arts are core academic subjects taught by highly qualified teachers, as stated in ESEA
The need for revised standards (Professional and Political)
Our teams leading the way
• More than 380 individuals applied to serve on five
art discipline standards writing teams
• NCCAS’s professional organizations chose teams
based on skills in teaching, standards and
curriculum writing, assessment and leadership, and
practical knowledge in their area of expertise
• Visit http://nccas.wikispaces.com for a complete
list of writers
1. Best practice based on research (College Board)
2. Dance, Music, Theatre, Visual Arts and Media Arts standards
3. An organizing framework for five arts disciplines that includes:
• Philosophical foundations/Lifelong goals
• Enduring Understandings/Essential Questions
• Observable and measurable standards
• Illustrative assessments and student work in a web-based environment
The Next Generation Standards will include:
Artistic Processes
• Create
• Perform/Present
• Respond
• Connect (dance,
media arts, theatre)
• Some drafts are likely to be complete and ready for internal review in March 2013.
• A full public review is planned for late summer or fall this year.
• Updated information will be posted on the NCCAS wiki site regularly during this period.
http://www.nccas.wikispaces.com
• The current goal is to have a finished draft of the complete standards by late 2013, ready for posting in an “Evergreen” web-based environment in 2014.
• Population of student work and other tools and resources on the website will continue, along with revisions, throughout 2014.

O Students have met standards and objectives
O Occurs on an ongoing basis
O Supports the stated rationale
O Could a reasonable outside person look at a
school’s evidence and reach the same
conclusion about a program rating as the
school team did?
Program review accountability
O The Unbridled Learning accountability model is
organized around the Kentucky Board of Education’s
four strategic priorities: Next-Generation Learners, Next-Generation Instructional Programs and Support
(Program Reviews), Next-Generation Professionals and Next-Generation Schools/ Districts.
Program review accountability
O The recent first release of data from the
Unbridled Learning model included only the Next-
Generation Learners component (Achievement
[Proficiency], Gap, Growth, Readiness for
College/Career and Graduation Rate). Schools have already received their 2012-13 Next-
Generation Learner Overall Scores as targets for
Proficient. In the fall of 2013, the second round of data from the
model will be released, and that data will include both
Next-Generation Learners and Next-Generation
Instructional Programs and Support (Program Reviews).
Program review accountability O The Program Review scores will have two roles in
the summer of 2013: 1) Schools will see a publicly-reported Program Review
classification (Needs Improvement, Proficient, Distinguished) for
each subject (AH/PLCS/Writing). 2) Scores will provide a baseline for the combined accountability
model that includes Next-Generation Learner and Next-
Generation Instructional Programs and Support (Program
Reviews) and the Overall Score as the target for Proficient in
2013-14.
Data for ALL Program Reviews MUST be entered in ASSIST by
June 1, 2013. During the school year 2013-14, schools and districts should be
working to improve baseline data. This gives schools an opportunity
to make modifications in program areas that need improvement.
