Open Up the Ceiling on the Common Core State Standards: Preparing Students for 21st‐Century Literacy—Now

Abstract: The Common Core State Standards Initiative is the latest effort to reform education through standards. This article examines how the Standards promise to prepare students for the changing world of the 21st century, yet do not consider the changing nature of literacy—especially the centrality of the Internet as a 21st century text, and online reading comprehension as a problem‐based experience.

“…Although the CCSS specifically focus on college readiness, it can be questioned whether students in the early grades are capable of meeting these elevated standards.

For example, while kindergarten teachers are providing language and literacy experiences, the students can now compose through drawing, dictating, writing opinion pieces, personal responses to literature, informative/explanatory texts, and narratives.…”

“…Penerapan pembelajaran berbasis masalah dapat meningkatkan partisipasi dan keterampilan berpikir kritis peserta didik dalam kegiatan kelas (Joyce, Weil, & Calhoun, 2015).
