24. Why New? “This standard of Social Studies education should not only be afforded to those in affluent neighborhoods or only utilized with those students in gifted and talented programs. This level of critical analysis and action should be the expectation of every student in the state of Kentucky.” -Tiffany Gruen, Elementary Teacher, Covington Independent “I want my students to have the confidence to make the world a better place.” -Roger Thomas, Middle School Teacher, Jefferson County “Students will be immersed in inquiry, but no longer will students be asking ‘Why do we have to learn this?’ They will be asking, ‘How is this learning important,’ and ‘How this learning will help me to better know, understand and question the world in which I live?’ AHH – what a refreshing thought.” -Monica Clark, High School Teacher, Bullitt County

25. Why Now? “My thought is that content is important, but there is so much knowledge at our fingertips that they need to know what to do with basic knowledge. Skills such as problem solving and critical thinking are important. They need to be able to support their information with evidence.” --Leslie Moyer, High School Teacher, Greenup County “In an era when information threatens to overwhelm us, it’s more crucial than ever to choose the right questions to ask.” -TIME Magazine, September 8-15, 2014, pp 38, 4 “Long ago, in youth, I was brash enough to think myself able to pronounce on ‘The Meaning of History.’ I now know that history’s meaning is a matter to be discovered, not declared.” -Henry Kissinger, TIME Magazine, September 22, 2014, p 38
