[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where for a given class, you have to follow the same exact sequence and pacing and use functionally the same tests as other teachers teaching the same thing?

I teach two preps and am having a hard time coordinating with the other teacher for a whole host of reasons--it's adding significant stress to my work week and providing functionally zero benefit.

My experience so far with CTs in general is that their biggest outcome is taking away planning time and adding constraints, which we would as well without. Wondering if they're common everywhere.[/quote]

They are common in pwcs and I hate it.  I don’t see it going away anytime soon though. [/quote]

They are common and exist so the middle management of the school (coaches, specialists etc) can have a job to do.  Half the time they have no idea what your actual grade level needs are, and try to impose some weird structure upon you as a teacher so they can ‘report to the county.”  I have little respect for ours and the model in general. They are a waste of money when I would rather have color printing and ink.[/quote]
