Presenter: Wendy Heard, Academic Department Chair and Site Technology Coordinator, Burbank Adult School

Wendy Heard introduces participants to the College and Career Readiness Standards for Adult Education, and to Webb's Depth of Knowledge wheel, and provides practice in identifying which depth of knowledge various questions address, with the goal of raising the level of questions that adult students address in order to prepare them for more analytical and evaluative thinking required in postsecondary education and on the job. She also reviews how the CCR math standards are constructed and how they change the traditional approach to math instruction.
