I have actual evidence. You do not. [/quote]

You really do not understand the difference between an "expert" who taught in a classroom for three years many years ago and a teacher who is required to use the standards?  Really? You think that pointing that out is discrediting that person?

My argument is that there were almost no classroom teachers on the committee.  It is a valid argument.  Not once have you proved it wrong.  There were 135 members.  It does not trouble you at all that there were not any early childhood teachers on the committees?  Not one?
It does not trouble you that there were less than five elementary teachers?  Maybe, only three?

And, no, teaching twenty years ago is not the same as using the standards in the classroom today.  Much of the experience that you tout was prior to NCLB.  These teachers have never had the pressure of testing along with the standards.  Do you really not get that?

I would have no problem with these "experts" if they were balanced by real world teachers.  The committees were not balanced.  You can look at the lists and figure that out.

What makes your opinion valid?  You don't use the standards.  You aren't in a classroom today.[/quote]
