There are other schools that need help. Whether the help should come in the form of standards is questionable. Some people believe these standards and tests will help. So far the NCLB testing has not helped a whole lot. It leads one to believe that other factors are strongly at play in the lack of achievement in these schools. Clearly the CC is no panacea. Let us hope that the CC debate does not distract us from really trying other creative solutions in these schools. Skills like motivation, persistence, self-esteem, time management and self control should probably be emphasized (see the GED comments above). [/quote]

Had the Common Core standards been developed in a logical way with input from true experts, it might have been a good thing.  However, they have ignored basic educational principles.  It's a shame.

That's already been addressed about five times in this thread.  Repeating "they had no input from experts bla bla bla" isn't going to cut it.[/quote]
