4.) As for the vetting - again, it has repeatedly been shown that a.) the standards were *not* developed in a vacuum - the vast majority of them were adapted from pre-existing state SOLs which were developed by prior panels of experts and which were already previously vetted and which have already been in production and in classrooms for years and b.) the standards compiled by the CC development committee did *not* just go straight from a closed room of development committee members into classrooms, that there were several rounds of review and comment during the development phase, and then there was a separate validation phase involving a separate set of experts, and then additional rounds of review and comment. To say there was "no" vetting is absolutely, [b]undisputably [/b]false. [/quote]

And, how do we know this?  It is from the Common Core website.  When did the committees meet?  How did they operate?  Did all math members work on all math standards?  Were the members paid?  If so, how much?

Where are the published comments?  Did the committees meet again to rewrite the standards after the comment period?  How did they vet the standards?

If it is "indisputable" that they were vetted, why don't the developers share the results?
