A couple of years ago MasteryConnect released a free iOS and Android app that made it easy for teachers to quickly identify and access Common Core standards. That app has been downloaded by more than one million people. But if you work in a state that hasn’t adopted Common Core standards or is phasing them in slowly, MasteryConnect’s Common Core app didn’t do much for you. That has changed with the latest release from MasteryConnect.

This fall MasteryConnect launched State Core Reference Apps for every state. These apps are designed to help teachers identify the standards (and the language of the standards) for the grades and subjects that they teach. Each app is different for each of the 50 states. For example, if you work in a state that doesn’t use Common Core standards, your states’ standards are featured in the app. MasteryConnect’s State Core Reference Apps are available for Android and iOS. Find your state on this map and you will be taken to the app that you need.

Applications for Education
MasteryConnect’s State Core Reference Apps probably won’t change the way that you teach, but they could save you time and frustration of looking up standards on a poorly-designed state website or booklet.
