And no, I'm not here to discredit anybody. I'm here to discuss the Common Core standards, testing, the No Child Left Behind Act, and all that other stuff on an anonymous internet message board, just as (I assume) you are. [/quote]

Good.  Now defend it.  People have attacked Common Core standards on several levels.  You like it, obviously, so it is up to you to defend it.  You posted a standard because you thought it showed "flexibility".  You ignored the fact that it was vague and not measurable.  (Criteria for the standards shows that standards should me "clear" and "measurable". It is neither.  Please tell us why that standard is there.

Please cite the pilot groups for these standards and the results.

Please also explain how the work committees were selected, what was the criteria for the selection of the so-called "experts"?  What process did the committees use to select these standards?

Then, please explain how Common Core can be divided from NCLB when so much time is spent on the tests?    How is Common Core going to improve on that when it is apparent that people are quite upset with these new tests.  Was there as much rebellion over the former tests?

That's a start.  I have not seen the answer to any of these questions.  I still do not see how new standards will improve education.
