Register at www.pnwboces.org/catalog Meetings for Social Studies Chairs/Directors/Coordinators/Lead Teachers What are best practices for leaders of social studies? There has been no period during the past half century in which the urgency for social studies administrators/leaders/teachers to gain a collective understanding of the changing landscape of social studies education on both the state and national level has been greater than now. During its fall and spring session, P/NWBOCES social studies leaders has discussed issues as diverse as social studies Training with local university and college departmental liaisons; the implications for the Common Core and APPR on social studies education; social studies and the NYSED initiative in Distance Learning; regional development of pre-assessments; and NYSED and local district decisions regarding potential scope and sequence changes.

Register at www.pnwboces.org/catalog Regional Pre and Post Test Development for Global History I (Grade 9) Based on the New Framework for Social Studies How can we ensure a reliable and valid pre- and post-test for the new Global I course? This is a two-year project based on the new NYS Framework for Social Studies. A regional test for Global I is strongly recommended by NYSED since there will be no Regents for this required course. Many teachers will need a pre- and post-test for their SLO. YEAR I 2013-2014 Fall/Winter: Development of the pre-test (depending on Board of Regents adoption of the curriculum and roll out) (3 days) • Review new Social Studies Framework for Grade 9 and the Common Core connection • Design the multiple choice and writing components of the pre-test aligned with the standards, key ideas, skills, and Common Core Early Spring: Develop post-test (2 days) Social Studies YEAR II 2014-2015 The second year of the project (dates and cost to be determined) would ask teachers to administer the pre-test in their districts and then return to BOCES to analyze their data and revise the pre- and post-tests if necessary.
