The National Coalition for Core Arts Standards (NCCAS) is conducting a final review February 14-28, and has posted downloadable drafts of all five arts disciplines' standards at http://nccas.wikispaces.com. The theatre team is seeking additional input through a series of questions that will be posted on the Advocacy Community Page. For more detail on what we're looking for see my blog. Our first question asked whether or not the new theatre standards offered enough clarity, specificity, and measurability for use in the classroom.
Here's today's question: If the standards we're adopted by your state, would you teach them? Why or why not?
