[quote=Anonymous][quote]Yes, the for-profit educational publishing companies try to make a profit by selling educational materials. That is what they do. That is what they did before the Common Core standards, that is what they would have done if the Common Core standards had never been developed, that is what they will do long after the Common Core standards have gone the way of all other educational reforms.[/quote] Yes, their motive is profit. They are not educators. They have millions of dollars to put into lobbying (and they are doing it). If they want to really make money, maybe they should lobby the educators and students and parents. Because, hopefully, this is a democracy and money doesn't determine everything. If something is not right for students, it should be their voices that are heard. People first, money second, things third. (Thank you Suze Orman). [/quote]
