Post: Issuing credits for non-standard based courses
Posted by: John Newell on 9/12/09
I work at a High School that has just had its curriculum
evaluated. It has been revealed that our course curriculum
does not meet Ohio standards. The teachers have began a
massive work to develop curriculum that aligns with Ohio
Standards and have been very successful in doing so.
However, administration wants to continue to utilize our old
courses (which are mostly computer based) for a growing
number of our students. The teachers are very not only
ethically concerned, but we are also concerned about the
legal ramifications of using courses that have been proven
to not align at all with the Ohio Standards. We are all
certified teachers, but our school is not in the union.
Should we refuse to issue the credits and push back to have
administration issue the credits themselves? Should we have
them provide written directives when they want us to assign
the old courses to students? Any comments or help, or who
to ask for info on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
