Editors (March 2013). Common Core State Standards for K-12 Education in America. Eugene, OR: Information Age Education.</div><div><br></div><div>The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) initiative began in the United States in 2010. Its initial emphasis on Math and English Language Arts has grown to include Science and History/Social Studies.<br></div><div>Recently, Information Age Education has published a series of ten <i>IAE Newsletters</i> on CCSS. These ten newsletters have been integrated into a book, <i>Common Core State Standards for K-12 Education in America.</i> The set of newsletters has been
augmented by an Appendix, <i>Goals of Education in the United States. The book is available free. See </i><a href="http://i-a-e.org/downloads/doc_download/249-common-core-state-standards-for-k-12-education-in-america.html"><i><span></span>http://i-a-e.org/downloads/doc_download/249-common-core-state-standa<span></span>rds-for-k-12-education-in-america.html</i></a><i> for

to contact David Moursund (<a href="mailto:moursund@uorgon.edu">moursund@uorgon.edu</a>) or Robert Sylwester (<a href="mailto:bobsyl@uoregon.edu">bobsyl@uoregon.edu</a>) about submitting a chapter based on Chapter 10 ideas or other ideas of their own choice.
The book will "grow" as new chapters are integrated in.<br></div><div>For other free math education materials from Information Age Education see <a href="http://iae-pedia.org/Free_Math_Education_Materials">http://iae-pedia.org/Free_Math_Education_Materials</a>.
