[quote=Anonymous][quote]Anonymous wrote: You misunderstand. It is impossible to make any major change in anything without major backlash. What is wrong with a more incremental and reflective approach? Why is top down being done? It resonates the wrong way with teachers. Some things that are forced don't work (and have to be repealed). Repealing laws has happened more than a few times in the history of the US. There has to be ground support. If you want to get more kids to do better in school, work at your state and local level (especially your local level). And, please, don't hand them a test. There is real work and learning to be done. What does any of this have to do with the Common Core standards? Especially given that the Common Core standards were a state effort, adopted (or not adopted) by the individual states?[/quote] A lot. Don't complain when the states drop out since that is their right. [/quote]
