What are the Sunshine State Standards?
The Sunshine State Standards provide expectations for student achievement in Florida schools and are available from the http://www.firn.edu/doe/menu/sss.htm link. STEPS, the Lesson Architect, software was developed at UWF to help teachers incorporate the Sunshine State Standards into their lesson planning process (see: http://www.ibinder.uwf.edu/steps/). STEPS and PLANright (http://www.ibinder.uwf.edu/planright/) are part of the iBinder system (see: http://www.ibinder.uwf.edu/ibpage.cfm?id=1). The Sunshine State Standards are tested through the FCAT.
