Abstract
William McCallum went over what has been going on in preparation for the release of the NCTM standards for high school mathematics. He went over the structure and some of the language used in the document. In particular he focused on the chapter on reasoning and sense-making. He went over two examples to illustrate what they meant by reasoning and sense-making in the document.
