Abstract:
This interview brings a sage voice from the larger world of education into the conversation about standards and results in part-time Jewish education. Dr. Cutler outlines the current thinking in and about the standards movement, discussing the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of using standards as a lever for educational reform. This piece can be useful for groups deliberating on establishing or changing standards for curriculum or teacher training.
