19 TAC §66.28
The State Board of Education (SBOE) adopts an amendment to §66.28,
concerning the identification of the essential knowledge and skills that will
be used in evaluating textbooks, without changes to the proposed text as published
in the May 2, 2003, issue of the
Texas Register
(28
TexReg 3680). The section specifies the essential knowledge and skills used
to evaluate instructional materials submitted under proclamations of the SBOE
advertising for bids on instructional materials. Texas Education Code (TEC),
Chapter 28, requires that the SBOE, by rule, identify the Texas essential
knowledge and skills (TEKS) that will be used in evaluating textbooks. The
amendment to §66.28 adopts by reference the specifications for the TEKS
used to evaluate instructional materials submitted under the call of Proclamation
2002.
Proclamation 2002, approved by the SBOE at the May 2002 meeting, calls
for instructional materials in a variety of subjects in fine arts, Grades
1 - 12; languages other than English, Grades 1 - 12; American Sign Language;
physical education, Grades 1 - 12; and health education, Grades 1 - 12. The
amendment to 19 TAC §66.28 defines, by rule, the TEKS to be used to evaluate
textbooks in these subjects as the TEKS contained in Proclamation 2002. The
amendment adds language that adopts by reference the content requirements
in Proclamation 2002 and deletes language related to Proclamation 2000.
The rule text of §66.28 is adopted without changes; however, the document
adopted by reference, Proclamation 2002, is adopted with editorial changes
that correct the essential knowledge and skills reflected for fine arts. Following
is a list of the corrections.
