[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I admit that I need to study it more. However, if the standards are used like NCLB standards have been, it could be devastating to schools and teachers who teach in low income areas.[/quote] That isn't the plan, and there is no plan for a universal assessment, at least driven by the federal government. There are two different groups developing/driving this effort. States have chosen to sign on to one or both (or none) of these efforts. While the Obama administration certainly supports CC and has shown support by including CC incentives in a few competitive grant programs, they are purposefully not the ones leading this effort. They know that any top-down, DOE effort would be shot down quickly. Lots of misinformation going around, either on purpose or just by not really understanding the issue. [/quote]
