[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If they are upset about corporations getting involved in public education then where have they been for the last 75 years given corporations have driven textbooks and curricula? They have been there all along. [/quote] Teachers have been complaining about this for years. The standardized tests developed by publishers will be even more dependent on the texts developed by publishers.[/quote] Oh, that is such bullshit. In this day and age of Wikis and ubiquitous information technology there's absolutely NO REASON why teachers couldn't band together and create collaborative open source textbooks, content and curriculum, put the textbook companies out of business and save taxpayers tens of millions of dollars.
