[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]http://dailycaller.com/2014/04/22/mandatory-common-core-tests-in-new-york-just-happen-to-be-full-of-corporate-brand-names/ another unintended consequence?[/quote] Just for clarification -- that was the New York State test, that New York state decided to give. There is no such thing as a Common Core test, but many states are choosing to use a common assessment, either the SMART test, or the PARCC test, to measure Common Core Standards. That test, was not a SMART or PARCC test. It was the test adopted by New York State. New York State is denying that there was any product placement deal made with the test -- they say the texts used were "authentic" and that authors just happened to use brand names... I have my doubts. THere's a lot about that NY State test that seemed rushed, and fishy.[/quote]
