Maine DOE staff joined approximately 100 faculty, admissions staff and leadership from the University of Maine System and the Community College System for the Summit on Informing and Aligning ME Public Higher Institutions with ME Public K-12: Proficiency & Assessment Activities on Nov. 6.
The summit, the first of its kind since the 2012, focused on promoting a common understanding of initiatives and terms, building an awareness of new learning approaches coming through K-12 and implications for institutions for higher education (IHE), beginning a dialog on use of Maine DOE assessments for IHE course placement, and building understanding of the college readiness standards within mathematics and English language arts.
Maine DOE joined in discussions to improve the coherence between PK-12 education and higher education experiences for Maine students. Presentations were made by Rachelle Tome, Anita Bernhardt, Charlene Tucker, Michele Mailhot, Morgan Dunton, and Angel Loredo.
Will any of the materials be available online for the general public?
