Ed task force debating reform ideas…

The governor's education stakeholders task force is now getting into something of a debate over Idaho Core standards; Idaho Education News reporter Kevin Richert is following today's debate in a live blog here, and you can watch the meeting live here. So far, the task force has voted on one recommendation from its "structural change" subcommittee, unanimously backing a "mastery based" education system. That means students advance based on content mastery, rather than "seat time" requirements.
