18. Do you agree or disagree with the majority of our State's curriculum standards? What would you change if you could?
How to Answer
The most appropriate answer will depend on the current climate in the organization you're applying to. Either way, demonstrate your professional engagement and industry awareness by pointing out the current weakness in your population and explain briefly what you would do to change it and why. It can't hurt to add that you will teach whatever standards you are asked to the best of your ability.

Answer Example
"I think what matters most is that our students get the proper education they need. There's an undeniable need to improve our science education right now, so I'd integrate science into other subjects, if I could. I'd somehow fuse each subject into the others, with a focus on science. For example, I might have a science fiction novel taught in an English class or demonstrate that you can apply math to science as well. I think students would retain more of knowledge by noticing how all subjects exist together in the real world."
