[quote=Anonymous] The devil will be in what they do with the standards (and this is true for any standards---good, bad, or whatever). Hopefully these will not dictate instruction from the top down. Hopefully these will just be guidelines, because if they aren't, there will be lots of complaining and more teachers leaving and more people deciding not to go into teaching. If they just use these standards to write tests and start a new round of bean counting that will not prove much, they are a waste of time and money (a lot of money). If students cannot be described through a more narrative process and can only be data points on spreadsheets, we have left a whole lot behind. No teacher left and students who have some sort of "common core" that someone else thought was important for them. [/quote]
