[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]Common Core standards came about because Obama and his Dept of Ed appointees didn't like how some states (mississippi) had lower standards, state tests, etc than other states (maryland). So he federalized the standards in order to "make each state the same." And tests will be the same across each state, nice and standardized, easy peasy to compare progress and divvy up budgets.[/b] [/quote] No. This is not correct. The Common Core standards come from the State Governors Association and the Council of Chief State School Officers. They were not a federal project. The Obama administration was not involved in the development of the Common Core standards. http://www.corestandards.org/about-the-standards/development-process/[/quote]
