Product Description
 | This report identifies knowledge and skills in mathematics that have been identified as important for students' success beyond high school, but are not commonly included in national standards or highly rated state standards. |
| Authors | John Kendall & Jill Williams |
| Target Audience | District and school administrators, curriculum directors, and teachers |
| Ways to Use this Product | - As a means for determining whether district or state standards in mathematics adequately prepare students for post-secondary work
- As a resource for teachers when considering additional mathematics content high school students should acquire
|
 Key Ideas | - State standards identify what all students should learn in mathematics; but recent studies identify additional knowledge and skills that are important for their future success.
- Formerly, the Carnegie Unit described expectations for incoming college students; standards offer a clearer method for communicating what students should know and be able to do to in order to be adequately prepared for post-secondary work.
