Indicators of K-12content standards, aligned with teachers’ instructional objectives, specify very discrete skills andknowledge that students are expected to achieve at identified grade levels, with perceived weakor non-existing connections between them within a grade level or between grade levels.Acquisition of these skills and knowledge are usually measured through standardized state-wideassessments, which at best provides discrete aspects or chunks of student performance.
