The Idaho Discovery Plan Guidelines are a set of regulations put in place by the Idaho Department of Education to provide consistent and quality educational experiences for students in the state. The guidelines include a set of core educational standards, as well as requirements for instructional resources, curriculum, and assessment. The Idaho Discovery Plan Guidelines specify how learning goals and instruction should be aligned with student interests and abilities, and how teachers and schools should measure student progress. The Idaho Discovery Plan Guidelines are divided into two parts. The first part is the Core Educational Standards, which cover grades K-12 and include standards for language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, and health and physical education. The second part is the Instructional Resources and Curriculum section, which provides guidance for developing and implementing instructional resources and curriculum. The guidelines also include the Assessment section, which outlines requirements for measuring student progress and providing feedback to teachers and schools.
