HELPING RIC MEET THE DEMANDS OF

NEW YORK STATE’S ACADEMIC STANDARDS

Real-world performance tasks are well suited to meeting the New York Science Learning Standards, New York State Next Generation Standards, and Technology Education Standard 5. They provide hands-on opportunities for students to think critically, problem solve, and use their skills to create and innovate

Defined Learning provides an online library of pre-built performance tasks that are based on careers and enhances instruction by asking students to apply the knowledge and skills they learned in the classroom to solve a real-world problem. We’ve partnered with RIC to address the needs for the region’s districts and empower their teachers to meet the demands of these new rigorous standards.
