On ALEX, educators can browse through standards that pertain to the Alabama Curriculum including guidance for IEPs and assistance to carry out lessons for students with disabilities. While writing lesson plans- which most school systems require- a content standard is required. These standards can be found within texts, workbooks, and other curriculum based resources in schools. The idea behind using a set of standards is that every student throughout the state will have a similar knowledge base and receive proper preparation for their future career. This is a controversial idea due to the fact that students accross the board may not be at the same level, students are too young to have a push towards college based standards, and various ideas; however, ALEX remains unbiased and is strictly informative when referring to state standards.
