[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]COMMON CORE is a minimum standard. [b]set of standards[/b]

It is NOT a curriculum.   [b]No, but it drives curriculum because it is tested by the standardized tests[/b]

It is NOT a test. [b] But if a state has adopted Common Core, they must use tests aligned to it---so far there are two of those that are approved for use by the feds[/b]

It is NOT federally developed. It was state-led, and state-developed. Feds only provided financial assistance. [b]If you call a committee selected by a trade association "state-led" and "state developed" well, okay, but it's a pretty fast and loose definition of those terms[/b]

The TEST is mandated by NCLB, which is federal law. [b]yes, and this is the reason it drives curriculum and why publishers are jumping in to provide that curriculum[/b]

The test is aligned to Common Core, because whatever the state standard is in place what you align it to. [b]Yes, because NCLB mandates testing[b]

But the TEST is also not federally developed. It was developed by a consortium of STATES. [/quote]  [/b]It was developed by private testing companies paid for by a consortium of states[b]

And your house was built by contractors.  By your logic above, it's not your house, it's their house.

Sorry, try again - that argument does not work.[/quote]

Then why is PARCC the one monitoring students and parents on social media.

I love the depths of your delusions. [/quote]

Logic is deeply lacking in you.  The test is not for the benefit of the testing company, it is for the benefit of the states, however the testing companies do have a vested interest in looking out for the best interests of the states to mitigate and minimize breaches of the test - which in fact KEEPS COSTS DOWN.

You really don't understand how ANYTHING works, do you?   And then, you ridiculously want to presume to proclaim those things that you clearly do not understand as "delusional?"  Laughable.[/quote]
