Indiana first state to adopt East Asian language standards
Action taken by the State Board of Education this week made Indiana the first state to adopt grade-level standards specific to Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages for all grades kindergarten through twelve.
The Indiana Department of Education’s World Language Standards Revision Task Force developed a separate, yet related, set of standards specifically geared towards East Asian languages, according to a press release.
The revision of the state’s standards for world languages is part of a larger effort designed to equip Indiana students with the skills needed for success in a global economy. Click here for Indiana’s academic standards for world languages.
