[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, I'm from NY but interested in MCPS. Can you tell me what's so bad (or good) about Curriculum 2.0? Thanks![/quote] You can poke around. My impression is that Curriculum 2.0 is meant to give kids a more thorough grounding in basics, and not try to move them through topics as quickly as possible. It's also associated with less differentiation-- so that instead of grouping kids by math ability and accelerating half of them to next year's curriculum, everyone stays on this year's curriculum and the teacher tries to make sure everyone has mastered it thoroughly and also that the more advanced kids aren't bored. In addition, grading changed so that pretty much no one can do better than "proficient". [/quote]
