Well, at least one pro Common Core poster claims that the standards are good.  The standards do not even meet the criteria on its own website.  I have yet to see anything to support that the standards are good.

At least two who are teachers have posted standards that they consider developmentally inappropriate.  I have posted standards that are vague, unclear, and poorly written.  It's hard to tell if they are appropriate since their meaning is in dispute.  There has been at least one standard posted that is not measurable.  
This calls into question the whole set of standards.  
My questions:
How were they vetted?
Who vetted them?
Where and when were they written?
What were the procedures used by the committees to write the standards?

What evidence is there that these standards are good?

Vague language and misspelled words are just indicators that the whole process was not professional.  If the [b]Language [/b]committee could not be bothered to proof the standards for clear writing, what makes you think that the foundation of the standards is good?

A Common Core supporter mocks me for being "picky" and critical. Others who criticize the standards are accused of being political wingbats.  I would be happy to consider a well thought out and valid argument in favor of the standards.  An earlier poster in favor of CC said that was what he/she wanted.  Yet, I have yet to see a strong defense of the standards and the process.  [/quote]
