For a student, a well-designed curriculum can be the difference
between a meaningful journey in learning and a laborious, futile
process of just getting through classes. Students don’t really
understand – or care – how crucial the groundwork is to the quality
of their education. But smart educators do.
The
mentor teacher or administrator uses CST’s Curriculum Planner
to set up the units, activities, objectives, skills, and resources.
Classroom teachers use their web browser to look up which activities
or resources are appropriate for the current unit.
Teachers
like the choice, flexibility, helpfulness, and efficiency of the
Curriculum Planner. They report that this product saves them planning
time and increases the quality of their instruction.

"This
is a superlative way of delivering curriculum to teachers. You
can't help but wonder why the State of Texas does not consider
this, or for that matter, the entire United States."
Harold
Brownlow, elementary principal from Ireland
"After working with over 100 math teachers in my district over the last few months who are using the Curriculum Planner to access the district scope and sequence of activities, I would suggest that this application holds the greatest promise for supporting real change in the classroom and thereby improving our results with students. The curriculum planner allows us to bring the best resources and the most extensive planning to every classroom in the district. It also provides a vehicle for monitoring instruction to the extent never before possible."
Dr. Butch Sloan, Secondary Mathematics Coordinator, Garland ISD
After
viewing a PowerPoint on the conflict between Jews and Palestinians,
(complete with Middle Eastern music), a class of 6th grade social
studies students spontaneously applauded. Later that morning,
the same students expressed their approval of a science
lesson on the respiratory system in the same way.
