Overview

In 1997, the WEEB awarded the Department of Public Instruction a grant to develop and print the Wisconsin Model Academic Standards for Environmental Education. Academic standards specify what students should know and be able to do, what they might be asked to do to give evidence of standards, and how well they must perform. They include content, performance, and proficiency standards.

Content standards: Refer to what students should know and be able to do. Performance standards: Tell how students will show that they are meeting a standard. Proficiency standards: Indicate how well students must perform.
