“There is an incredible tension between
standards-based reform and ensuring our
students are creative and innovative….. We must
be careful that in implementing standards-based
education, our educators are not teaching to the
test, but rather, are offering curriculum that
fosters innovation and creativity.”
(Susan Zelman, Ohio Superintendent of Public
Instruction, 2006)
