[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If NEA and AFT had truly turned their backs on CC in betrayal of the Gates Foundation as you claim, then why would the Gates Foundation continue to support NEA and AFT? Your claim just doesn't make sense. [/quote] Gates needs the NEA and the AFT. Without them, he will have a much harder time. You cannot do something this big without all kinds of buy in. At this point it's already questionable whether the buy in is enough. If you've got people arguing, states dropping tests, parents opting out, teachers quitting, etc., then you need to put the horse out of its misery. [/quote] Certainly there is a lot of noise from the arguing. However -- Which states are dropping which tests? How many parents are opting out, and to what extent is that related to the Common Core standards, as opposed to testing? How many teachers are quitting because of the Common Core standards? I'd like to see some data and documentation.:-)[/quote]
