The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics
TL;DR: The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) was published in 2010 and includes a complete collection of standards that are published and reviewed as a ‘common core’ in which math skills have been extensively adopted as discussed by the authors.
The Common Core State Standards
TL;DR: The standards were developed in a state-led process under the leadership of governors (NGA) and state superintendents (CCSSO) from 48 states who were increasingly concerned about the ability of U.S students to compete in a global economy as discussed by the authors.
