Yvette Jackson: The Common Core State Standards

Release Date: 
April 26, 2013

In this clip, SCOPE Brown Bag speaker and CEO of the National Urban Alliance for Effective Education Yvette Jackson discusses the affinity between the pedagogy of confidence and the Common Core State Standards.

Jackson visited SCOPE in January 2013 to discuss the research presented in her book, Pedagogy of Confidence: Inspiring High Intellectual Performance in Urban Schools, which dispels the theory that student achievement is best improved by implementing policies that focus on weaknesses (such as No Child Left Behind).
