[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's another article about this: http://www.slate.com/articles/health_and_science/science/2014/11/texas_board_of_education_hearings_moses_and_states_rights_in_social_studies.html One of the good things about the Common Core is that it reduces the power of Texas to get loony things into textbooks that people not in Texas use. On the other hand, the Common Core only has standards for math and English, not social studies or science...[/quote] It's strives to be controversial and is too much like people magazine, it's hard to take anything published there seriously.[/quote] I've never read any original reporting in People magazine about the Texas State Board of Education's public hearings on new social studies textbooks, but I haven't read People magazine in years; maybe it's changed.[/quote] You won't read any original reporting on the Slate site either, just biased "reporting".[/quote]
