Pros and Cons
What did you think of the cartoon? What did it tell you
the common core may do?
Critical Thinking on Glenn Beck????
What did he really tell you? What educational experts
did he interview? Who are these Harvard and Stanford
“people”.? Since when did the public vote on State
standards or have imput into local curriculum( or
private school)
McTighe….what did he tell you, what do you know
about Backwards Design?
Who is supporting the common core in Indiana, who
said they would no longer have a voice?
State Tests are not part of Understanding by Design or
the Common Core State Standards which call for
embedded formative assessments and students
perform well on formal summative assessment.
State Tests that are high stakes for students, teachers,
schools …fight against this….no research for this!
