[quote=Anonymous]It would be foolish for Common Core supporters to deny that there is controversy. What Common Core supporters deny (or at least this one does) are the following: 1. The standards come out of nowhere. 2. The standards are untested. 3. Nobody else in the world anywhere does anything like this. 4. All of the standards are bad, and I don't have to refer to any specific standards because they are all bad. 5. Common Core is a conspiracy of Bill Gates/Obama/the Trilateral Commission. 6. The standards are simultaneously too easy, too hard, and too standardized. As for "no scientific evidence shows curriculum improves the quality of math instruction" -- that sounds good, but what specifically do you mean by it? Do you mean that what teachers teach, or how teachers teach, is not related to how well teachers teach? Specifically what kind of evidence would satisfy you?[/quote]
