[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Nobody on this board has said that opposition to Obama is the only reason for opposition to the Common Core standards. What various posters have said is that some of the opposition to the Common Core standards comes from opposition to Obama. Which is true. [/quote] I think the opponents have given very specific reasons for not liking Common Core. One of the posters above posted quite a list. Could you please tell us why you think it is good? Please give us specific reasons. [/quote] Yes, I agree that there are a lot of reasons why people don't like the Common Core. I'm just not persuaded by any of them. The Common Core standards have become the Rorschach test of educational reform.[/quote] The issue is that the reasons people say they don't like Common Core either don't actually directly have anything to do with Common Core (i.e. problems with bad textbooks, lousy implementation, testing) or they simply aren't valid or were specifically intended to inflame (i.e. conservative websites saying CC "forces Islam on kids" - something that has zero merit or truth) [/quote]
