[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]It's not an excuse. It's a description of reality. That is the reality. [b]I agree that it's not how the world should be, but it is how the world is. [/b] Also, if it doesn't bother you that your allies are Bobby Jindal and Ted Cruz, then it certainly doesn't bother me.[/quote] Do you always give up on your ideals so easily? Do you like to pigeon hole people? This is a big problem with the high stakes standardized tests. [/quote] The high-stakes standardized tests are a result of the No Child Left Behind Act and have nothing to do with the Common Core standards. If the Common Core standards went away tomorrow, there would still be high-stakes standardized tests. As for me personally, my ideals don't preclude recognizing reality as reality. In fact, I can't work effectively for change unless I have an accurate understanding of how things are now.[/quote]
