NEW: Draft of NDE World Language Standards (Feb 18th)!Since January 2025, Nebraska educators have been working alongside the NDE’s Office of Teaching, Learning, and Assessment to revise and update the Nebraska’s 2019 College and Career Ready Standards for World Language Education. A draft of proposed revisions is now available for public input.
WE NEED YOUR INPUT! Feedback from parents, employers, community members, and educators is an important part of the standards revision process. Data generated from the survey, including written comments, will be considered as NDE staff and Nebraska educators continue their review of the 2016 standards.
As you provide input, please consider the following questions:
Are the proposed revisions to standards and indicators measurable, appropriately challenging, connected to real-world applications, clearly worded, scaffolded, and specific?
Do the proposed revisions to standards reflect the knowledge and skills required for employment or postsecondary education?
To what extent do the proposed revisions provide a high-quality framework that guides local instructional decisions?
