[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]VDOE “shut down” de-tracking over six months ago. Doesn’t stop the nutters from shrieking about it though…

Megan McLaughlin said we should keep watching VMPI because they were being incredibly cagey.

Do you consider her a nutter?[/quote]

No.  She is right about the VA DOE.

The DOE has shown they are cagey, duplicitous, and deceptive while trying to pursue their own agenda; specifically: implement VMPI as originally proposed, even over the objections of most parents.  [/quote]

There was no “proposal”. It was very early stages and they were gathering feedback. Done.

Nothing in their presentation said that they were in the early stages. They were 100% proposing significant changes and were very much on a specific track. You can try and soft sell it all you want but they were not gathering feedback, they were showing their planned changes. They email I got from them was disturbing.

Tell me you haven’t watched any info sessions without telling me you haven’t watched any info sessions.

[i]The VMPI will develop an initial vision for mathematics education in K-12 that will require feedback from many different stakeholders across the Commonwealth.  This feedback will be critical when the Mathematics Standards of Learning revisions in 2023 reflect the goals and recommendations of this Initiative. Possible piloting of high school level mathematics courses prior to full implementation is now being considered. This Initiative will establish an innovative direction for mathematics education in Virginia that will benefit all students.

What are the proposed changes to mathematics pathways on which the VMPI task force is seeking feedback?

Feedback
The Virginia Department of Education welcomes your feedback as the Virginia Mathematics Pathways Initiative moves forward.  Please email vdoe.mathematics@doe.virginia.gov.

Additional opportunities for information and stakeholder feedback will be forthcoming. STAY TUNED![/i]

Followed by several info sessions in which they clearly state in each that they are in early phases (“building phase”) and they are seeking feedback.

Notes from one of the info sessions:

[i]“ They are still in “building” phase - proposal won’t be presented until 2022 
First draft to BOE 2022 ”[/i][/quote]
