[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Someone mentioned that the CC sets the standards, but the individual school districts write their own curriculum. Yet, there will be common standardized exams and who will write those? In fact, it seems that CC is trying to drive the process or why else would people be complaining about the math instruction? There are also many materials and texts "aligned" with the CC. Would those become part of the "curriculum" or would a school district create all new?[/quote] There will be annual standardized tests for grades 3-8 aligned to the Common Core standards (PARCC and Smarter Balanced) because the federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (before the Common Core standards) requires these tests. The requirement for the annual standardized tests is not new. Whether a school district buys a curriculum developed by somebody else or develops its own curriculum is up to the school district.[/quote]
