[quote=Anonymous][quote] The "well thought out positions" seem to be lacking in even the most basic of things, like being able to answer, cogently, which specific standards are problematic, by what criteria, and by what specific observational evidence, along with delving into whether the standard is problematic because the standard is actually problematic, or whether it's because your screwed the pooch on meeting the foundational requirements that were a prerequisite to kids being able to build upon it in the subsequent year - for example, expecting kids to do long division in an appropriate grade but [b]being unable to do so because the prior grades let addition and subtraction slide?[/b] [/quote] Far more likely that the kids started school without number sense and the teachers had to push ahead in order to meet the standards--instead of teaching what the kids really needed.
