  In Roundtable Session: New Perspectives on the Social Studies Curriculum

Abstract

In this study, the authors examine a particular political moment in Missouri, when the repeal of the Common Core State Standards prompted a revision of the 6-12 social studies standards. More specifically, the authors examine the nature of the changes between the old and revised version of the standards, in order to not determine how politics influence the substance of standards.
