So now your claim is that the standards were written by professors? [/quote]

No, the [b]fact [/b]is that there were no classroom teachers involved in the development process.  Go do some research.  There were some professors among the writers.

Aha -- we're back to "no teachers were involved", except that now it's become "no classroom teachers".[/quote]

This anti-CC poster's tactic has been to dodge, deflect, and move the bar (it's "no teachers were involved...." then it's "no classroom teachers were involved" and then it's "only two classroom teachers were involved" and then it's "oh, well so maybe some other people involved who taught the classroom teachers and who do research and analysis into what's developmentally appropriate in academia were involved but they don't really teach in a classroom so therefore by my own rationalization they don't count") but then a minute later move the bar right back to where we started ("no teachers were involved") and repeat the whole cycle over again.  We've been through all of this at least 6 or 7 times already.  It's ridiculous.[/quote]
