- This three-minute video explains how the Common Core State Standards will help students achieve at high levels and help them learn what they need to know to get to graduation and beyond.
This video looks so nice and explains a lot if you've never been taught under common core. Literally just empty statements on "making sure your child can achieve" and other nice things. Anyone who struggled through convoluted explanations of simple math knows.
Sabere Synergistic Board is the best way to apply common core in a class setting. Imagine differentiated instruction, collaborative, student-centered, and skill acquisition, all in one. Teachers who have not used Sabere Synergistic Board will be overworked and burned out. SSB is sweeping Asia. Asian schools are adopting this revolution in education. Go figure!!! It makes the teacher's job easy and increases students' engagement, learning, and learning gains. It is the board that teachers usually say "Oh my god" when they see it. Check it out. It will turn your teaching life around. Innovation Drives Education!!!
This video prompted me to start the process of exploring the possibility of home schooling my child.
Me too :)
how's that going, Dan?

please don't do that. if you feel the need to supplement your kids' education with additional materials that's one thing, but as people we get so much more out of school than a basic education. school is where we build social skills, make friends, have once-in-a-lifetime experiences and memories that you'll treasure for ever. would you really rob them of that because you're frustrated with the new status quo? lf.
Ok, so, to explain to me what Common Core is, I was shown a few math problems. Math is my strength - I became an accountant (not because accounting uses math - it doesn't, it only uses arithmetic out of math - but because it uses the same type of thinking) and I had problems solving them. In essence, as far as math goes, Common Core requires students to take extra steps in solving easy problems, making everything more complicated than it should be. This video mentions none of that!
This video isn’t about math… but if you have a hard time understanding common core “new math” then that just goes to show that your education failed to instill long-term core concepts of arithmetic. To someone who was fortunate in their pathway through “old math” (often just the most inquisitive and self-guided students) the new math curriculum is not only natural but an obviously excellent idea.
Mathematical proofs and advanced concepts would be your failure then.
Your point is *very* valid: too often teachers don't realize that the basic root of common core is: there's more than one way to solve a problem. I was trained to teach Common Core math by allowing students to explore a problem and come up with a variety of ways that they could solve it. By discovering different strategies for the same problem leads to exploring if those strategies will work in other situations: creative thinking.
Too often, though, teachers aren't trained to teach flexibility and they get too caught up in "this way or no way".

If this is the true reason behind common core and students aren’t “forced” to do it in a long, complicated fashion, then I’m all for it. If they essentially say “there’s many, possibly infinite ways to solve this problem, here are a few examples, pick one that works best for you OR come up with your own method” then I’m all for it.
If, however, it’s “this is the new way to solve it and if you don’t use this way you’ll get points deducted” then I hate it
@@PeterDB90 It is. Student should be encouraged to tear apart and put the problems back together again, understanding the concept behind the problem. Teachers should assist students to realize the best way to solve based on the student's math experience.
This video tells me absolutely nothing about Common Core. This should be titled "Three-Minute Video Selling the Common Core State Standards". Because that's all this video is. An attempt to advertise it.
That's because it's about Common Core State STANDARDS....like it is titled. Did you not read? I suppose the education system should be blamed for illiteracy too, huh?
@@GrammeStudio Perhaps it can be blamed for illiteracy. I suppose it can also be blamed for poor reading comprehension in your case :)
@@KibblezanBitz says the one who couldn't differentiate between Common Core & Common Core Standards. 😂 Seriously? Your go-to insult is basically a "no you"? Looks like you're stuck in the kids' playground, still. That explains your illiteracy, I guess.
Keep whining about the education system when you're so mentally incompetent you can't even achieve the most basic tasks, like reading. You should've blamed your parents for not sending you to special ed school instead 😂
@@GrammeStudio I insulted your reading comprehension because you clearly don't get what I'm saying. The video title suggests that the video explains what Common Core Standards is, but a title calling it a commercial would be more accurate because the video doesn't explain shit, it's just a three-minute commercial.
I highly doubt an A in Seattle equates to a C in Chicago
lol
No,it's true,for in Chicaaaaago you stay and learn in school for longer hours because of being shot at on the streets as opposed to Seatlites smoking weed!!
It can be if the schools don't grade the same. The bell curve I guess? Or Like if one state is more high achieving an A is harder to earn, compared to a state where everyone is average. So the one who preformed well in the average state, if he went to preform academically in the high achievers' state, he would only do averagely. They used the states as examples. They could have easily have said Maine And California or Arizona and South Dakota.
I think common core has a few good ideas but overall, still needs work. They take to many long ways around. They take getting from point A -B to A.1......A.10.1 and so on.
The US is still very low in a math rank of 20 something other countries. I don't think common core is going to get us any higher.
It’s just a example if they said it the other way around you know some people would have taken it the wrong way. She sounds like a nice lady.
That’s actually exactly what was happening. Teachers were being pressured to grade high so that districts looked good. Then when it came time for college students were left unprepared.
It seems to me that this whole common core thing is based on creating a globally standardized education system and competition.
exactly
Common core isn't even an education system.

@@Maryjane13400 how does someone this stupid puts food on the table?
Each stop is a chance to not push the kids excelling and bringing the standards down. Everyone gets a gold medal!!
Washington Post published an article stating that Common Core is NOT preparing students well for college and career.
There are gaps between what K12 teachers teach and what college professors think is valuable. Same for the workplace. Employers find that Common Core does not teach what matters to the workplace and build a successful work environment.
Wow! This video is exactly like public education under Common Core. I sat through the whole thing, and still learnt nothing!
You wouldnt have learned anything any other ways.
probably because you didn’t listen
Common Core crushes individuality and creativity. While in school, I was taught several different ways to approach a problem and then given the choice to pick which one worked for me, or maybe I'd do a combination to check my work. This is the opposite of how Common Core works. Common Core schools are a factory, not a learning environment.
this seems so stupid, why all the focus on metrics and how well a body of students are seen, on a community level?? teaching should be about a student's own progress, there is no cookie cutter method to teaching.. jesus christ, this reminds me of pink floyd's the wall.. good job
Standards =/= curriculum
that's exatly what they are going for, mindless children who do what they are told
Because life is all about standards, getting a job is all about comparing people and seeing who meets requirements. There is no point moving someone through the education system if they arent going to be able to meet the standards of modern society.
U the real mvp
OH MY WORD! Whoever subtitled this video needs common core standards being touted! I can't stop focusing on how horrible they are!
If common core works so well, why are so many states considering getting rid of it?
because politicians love their jobs more than anything else, and when the dumbass majority decides they cant understand the advantage of common core, they blindly agree so you idiots vote for them again.
+VeryUnfriendlySpoon They question the legitimacy. Not only that, common core is a one-size-fits-all approach.
Joey Common core isn't a set curriculum, it's a set standard. It tells the school divisions what the students must be able to do by the end of each year, not how they must be taught. If you don't like the teaching method, don't blame common core, blame that school division.
VeryUnfriendlySpoon "it's a set standard"
Standards and standardized tests lead to a one-size-fits-all education; they're ridiculous
From this video I have deducted one thing. Common core was made so that everybody is one the same level as one another and let me tell u that is unacceptable. We can't have a society where one scientist is as smart as the other because when that scientist can't figure out a problem then no one would be able to because every other scientist is as smart as that one. Also you can't throw someone below level into the position to where they are average that is terrible and would come with too much stress for said person. Also, what students with mental disabilities? There are only two solutions to that problem and that is either to force kids with special need to slow their learning down so they can be one the same level as that person or the special needs kid would have to jump up to a considerably average level. Competition is what fuels society. If we remove that, then what would we be as a country?
look up Margaret Thatcher income inequality her argument pretty much works against common core as well
Can't tell if troll or not
V.Liveley this doesn't really apply to basic adding and subtracting maths... without which you wouldn't be able to become any kind of scientist. Not saying that common core isn't literally trash and typical american ignorance, but still...
Ok, you think it is unacceptable that schools should teach everyone the same things, and make sure everyone understands the material? The point of common core is to create a path that ensures when you get to college your not held behind because your states standards are different than another. It's not saying everyone has to be as smart, it says every student should be given all the opportunities to get an equal education.
FIlho Da Puta I don’t see how this comment is retarded. He does have a point: what happens if we remove competition as a whole in our education system? This is the problem with today’s generation. We just want participation trophies and we want others to get participation trophies as well.
THIS IS FUCKIN MARXISM.
While I disagree with many of the statements in this video, I've got to give the creators credit for creating an interesting video that appears to be will done. Common Core certainly has its issues, but since it is what most States have selected as their curriculum, we will be able to see how Common Core impacts the overall education of students all across the country in the long run. Teachers and students/parents are adapting to the required standards, so hopefully our students will be able to compete in a competitive world.
This is propaganda
Everything in our life is propaganda) even your comment is propaganda against propaganda
At least they have a black voice selling it right?
this is the worst educational system i've ever heard of
Lu Nicholas explain
not really, Natural Selection basically had us trying berries, if we live we can have offspring, if we die, the plants offspring use us as food.
@Mike Ghibelline Wow!! How did you deal with that??
"Like it or not."
How bullies begin sentences . . .
Nice
Thank you I love it!!
STFU
Still confuse. So is common core trying to unify the nation's schools into a medium-paced or a slow-paced learning schedule?
This says absolutely nothing about what common core actually is. This is simply a sales pitch to make you feel good about destroying our children's ability to do simple task. My daughter has been struggling with school. When I sat down and watched her try to do a simple subtraction problem I stopped her, gave her a 10 second lecture on how to do REAL math, and she was done with the entire page in the time it would take her to do one problem. Common core is abysmal!
Same! Im still in school but when my mom teaches me how to another method thats not like,tO gEt 50 dIviDed by 2 YoU neeD to DrAw 50 cIrclEs and Buy a PiZza Eat HalF anD tHEn u Have the Answer I actually excel in class
Did you try tutoring her at Growing Stars?
It's cheap and provides great quality.
I am one of the tutors.
You are talking about curriculum, not Common Core, which are standards. The cirruculum changed from when we were younger from just teaching one method to teaching multiple methods to the same problem, with the goal of have them UNDERSTAND what they are doing and why they are doing it. The fact that we didn't understand what we were doing but knew a method is the reason "Are you smarter than a 5th grader" was a thing.
You are barking up the total wrong tree leaving this comment on this video…
@@fashnek You are the wrong one
Thank you for this video. I strongly disagree with the idea but the video explained it pretty well.

The person who wrote the script for this video was clearly raised on a common core curriculum because there are more logical fallacies than I can even keep track of.
James Livingston made a good point that education and teaching should be focused on the students progress.

I'm not sure how many people commenting are teachers, but as a 4th grade teacher myself, I'm not really opposed to the Common Core standards. Everyone who has done or read even the smallest amount of research on education knows that any standards are better than no standards, and beyond that, having consistent standards across the US that are also on par with the standards of other leading countries is MUCH better than the previous system even just a couple years ago.
2:03 What if not everybody has the ability to reach these levels.
Then it is the job to develop different teaching approaches in order to meet those levels.
Peter Maple's comment demonstrates exactly why Common Core State Standards are so necessary. He should've used ''you're'' which is a contraction of the words "you" and "are". Had the Common Core been in place when he was in elementary school, this tragedy might've been prevented. We weep for you, Peter Maple.
The "good idea fairy" strikes again
If you're setting a standard on education throughout the nation it isn't about holding anyone back, it's about setting an equal line for academic success. It's about ensuring that students moving from one state to another don't get set up in confusion or being held back because their new state has much higher standards than their previous states. In my personal experience I initially struggled when moving from SC to NC, because especially in math NC was ahead by about a grade level.
Mike stares at the small cracks floorboards as he stood in the hallway of his home he shared with his wife. Their was something hypnotic about how the small chaotic cracks would form and reform endless combinations of patterns inside the aged pine. He fidgeted with something in his hands but was not fully aware of what it was. Something about it did not feel entirely real, like it had been put into his hands as a bad prank. It was wet and, it was sticky, it needed to be cleaned, it needed to be tossed away. The cracks and the patterns where thrust back into insignificance and all feelings but fear and regret were obliterated in Mike as the sounds of distant sirens yanked him out of his own thoughts. Mike slumped to the floor pressing his back to the wall and began to sob, "If Ruby just had not found that stupid little green hair clip."
8. Why us Ruby so affected by the hairclip?
9. How has the hairclip affected Ruby's relationship?
10. From where did the hairclip most likely come?

It's cute to think that this is how common core works, but passing through grade levels doesn't really have anything to do with whether someone is smart enough to move on or not. It just has to do with "Well, I'm x years old now, so I have to go to grade y." I'm gonna be a senior next year, taking the SAT in a month, and I still don't know how to divide. I sure as hell wasn't prepared as well as I should've been, and regardless of what kind of "level playing field" that common core is trying to establish, the fact of the matter is that I shouldn't be taking some stupid classes that don't have anything to do with what I want to spend the hours of my life on. I get it, try everything once, but when you've been sitting in a classroom for 11+ years, learning the same subject you aren't gonna use to make a living, that's not trying anymore, that's just stupid.
Also, tell me again why a guy like me who doesn't know how to divide has gotten an A in every math class he's ever taken? What kind of "level playing field" is that? I'm not learning anything besides how to abuse a grading system.

I don't know what the future holds but based on our current preps, one of my lessons for this year is to help the students learn how to research articles online and teach students how to disseminate the information between fact and opinion. Then help them structure a good persuasive essay based on the texts they choose. The articles should be related to history, science, english, etc (CC subjects). This lesson is built around what we are told is CC. Of course, I can't speak for anyone else.
Who did the subtitles? At 00:40, when the narrator says “No”? The subtitles show “Now”... indicative of American standards.
continued part 3.... I believe what I read about Finland is that the curriculum is not focused on preparing for standardized test and that teachers are highly respected and trusted to teach the children as they feel. I believe there is also a requirement that teachers have at least a Masters. Then I believe in South Korea they are pretty hardcore on passing exams, but also teachers are also respected more.
the end-of-the-year tests got harder after good old STAR or CST testing in my school.
+Jorge Rodriguez Same
If we all go to the same schools read the same books and take the same test's what you end up with is no individuals. Without individuals there is no Art,Music,Inventors no Culture.
Every teacher I know does that - it's what good teachers do. We value our students' opinions. We also value our their parents' opinions as well.
Have any of you read the standards? Most confusing piece of reading ever.
And they're so specific that now kids all over the country are being talk to think the same way. The standards say stuff like the students must be able to this problem that way, but if EVERY kid in the country is learning that then everyone is just going to be thinking the same way and today's generation of kids are just gonna be robots, controlled by the previous generation
This is not an actual example, but it's basically the concept behind Common Core. If you are asked what is 6+3, you cannot answer "9" as simple as the question may seem, you must instead re-write the problem into 1+1+1 (total 3) + 1+1+1+1+1+1 (total 6) to get 9 by counting all the 1s. This is fine if students truly finds this to be easier, the problem is that it requires students that are competent enough to solve it on their own to do it the complicated way, and if they don't, it's incorrect.
We've been preparing for common core standards since last school year. We begin transitioning to it this August. What you are saying couldn't be further from the truth. The students are suppose to use background information, context, prior knowledge, and personal opinion in a Common Core Standards based curriculum.
Here is a work in progress test in California based on Common Core so you can see what I mean:

Common Core is "Education by Committee" where the Educators have been pushed aside by the ideologies.
Confident well prepared students LMFAO all I got is anxiety, lack of confidence and fear of failure to the point I can't even get a job because I'm too scared at failing 👌 well done, w e l l d o n e
You can thank U.S. LOCALLY controlled education!!
I understand you have some sort of intense angst, things in your life aren’t what you feel entitled to, and you want someone to blame. But a national education standard is just such a bizarre target.
@@fashnek it is, but now I'm not in this system and i don't feel half the anxiety, fear and lack of confidence i used to experience. but yay, i got a job now and if i fail i can try again and again and again until I got stuff right, but at school? when it happened i was doomed for 3 months or maybe the rest of the year. it's not a healthy system yk and people inside make stuff even worse

0:38 subtitle is wrong!
"the answer to both of these questions is ..." NO not NOW. How can a video talk about education when there are spelling errors??
Kids in k-2 are melting down and learning to hate school, all because CCSS asks them to do things that are developmentally inappropriate all while ignoring things like teaching them to socialize, learn through play and movement, and to love reading. The level of abstract thinking in these grades is way beyond what a 6 or 7 year old can handle.
So it is more important to make everything "equal" than to allow people and communities to EXCEL?
Also did you notice they refer to the students continually as "behind" what about the percentage that is significantly ahead?
Some of the problems is with the removal of the A to F grading system. When our schools started using a pass or fail instead, it became harder for a parent or teacher to know where their child was scholastically. This change came as a result of the mentality that everyone is special and deserves a reward.
There seems to be a lot of negativity here, as a former non-union class room teacher and current private tutor I'd just like to say that common core standards are a big positive if they are implemented correctly in the school and classroom.
All these standards are is a list of things that kids should be able to do before they get to the next grade, and frankly if you actually read them, which you should, they are very appropriate and involve a huge amount of critical thinking development.
It's not slowing down. It's saying that it's making everyone learn at the same rate. If anything, they're expecting you to learn faster. or at least at the same speed of everyone else.
so dumb it down for everyone so that that stupid dont feel left about?
I am going to share with you a personal story. I live in Sweden and I got dyslexia. Almost everyone in my family got dyslexia since my mother and her sister and brother got it from their father and I got it from my mother. For me to compete in language is a uphill battle simply because it just harder for me to do it. I don't see things normal people see so I need to force me to see them, which doesn't always work. I was placed in special help classes (which didn't really do anything) all the way up until I started high school, even when I asked for a dyslexia test. I finally got that test when I was 18 year old and halfway through high school. I followed everyone else and did the same test as they did and I never once failed a language test in either English or Swedish. Why? Because I fucking thought to learn shit. I did do my homework. I put the homework's deadline in a calendar and made sure I had everything finished by the deadline. In the end of 9th grade I scored a B in Swedish, something not many normal people was able to do and that was because I worked on it. In high school we had a big test where we should write a special kind of essay or something, and we was given time to prepare. I was however not on the school as they informed the class in a big break and no one said anything until 1 hours before the test. So everyone else had over 24h to prepare and I had 1 hour. Normally its considered almost impossible to pass such a thing with that amount of readiness yet I did it. Sure it wasn't the best thing ever but it was still passable and especially when you consider my dyslexia. I passed it because I gave a shit to learn and I never used my dyslexia as an excuse for me not learning.
That someone struggle is not a excuse to slow things down. Today we got a lot of shit to learn to even to be able to keep up. You can't afford to slow the pace down for a whole class just because the slow kid doesn't understand, if you do you will not have enough time to cover what you need for college or high school. You got to learn shit at home, and parents and other adults need to spend time teaching their kids how to do stuff.
Here is an idea. How about instead of forcing all schools to do the same way of teaching maybe you should instead have the same curriculum for elementary and high school and do nationwide tests to check if a school teach the correct stuff or not, and check that everyone in the nation learn what they need to know. I once read in the news paper Metro about a boy that was pissed about this test, he was like someone that was just expecting A on everything and on the national test in Swedish he failed to be able to read the story of The Sleeping Beauty. You know, that classic. He was bumped down to a C (the system we used at the time only had 3 grades so a C is passed but not more) or something in Swedish. That is how it should be, and you simply have to accept that people will not be able to keep up because they don't care as much about learning. Do not punish the good because of the bad people.
Cloud Seeker Common Core doesn’t prescribe how to teach the standards but rather what needs to be taught and at what level of rigor.
That's what the Common Core is........ it's not the same way of teaching its holding everyone to the same academic standards
I don't get the people who say they are against CC because "We need to individualize education to meet the needs of the individual student." That is exactly what CC is all about. Where is the imagination? CC is much more than year-end testing. Standards are a prerequisite to individualized, mastery-based education where each student learns at their own pace. CC is key to assessing a student's mastery at the individual learning unit (daily?) to see if they are ready to move on to the next unit.
I believe that each state needs to have common goals and standards for kids. We all need to be on the same page, and have benchmarks that are in the same spot for the same grade level. We need to be consistent nationally. I also believe that kids need to be taught and given the opportunity to use critical thinking. I do not think common core has been used long enough to prove whether it works or not.
After doing virtual last year, I saw what Common Core was. It was terrible. I wish I would have homeschooled my kids sooner. Better late than never.
You saw CLASSWORK tht is defined by TEXTBOOKS that are chosen by districts.
Try comparing with actual requireents (standards) before judging.
Science teachers aren't teaching literary conventions or grammar. They are teaching kids to read and respond in writing/speaking/publishing to science text. The standard you mentioned is for the English classes. Here's a science CCSS: RST.11-12.3 Follow precisely a complex multistep procedure when carrying out experiments, taking measurements, or performing technical tasks; analyze the specific results based on explanations in the text. corestandards. org/ELA-Literacy/RH/9-10
How do you call this kind of videos with an explanation and someone who is drawing or even better when nobody is drawing, but there are moving images? Is there a program to make something like this?
"we must make sure every student can _compete_[..] get a _well paid job_".
Yeah. That's the spirit of education, alright.

I've been working in public schools for 15 years now. My point was that I'm the same teacher in both venues, & I addressed the CCSS in both as well. If I can teach the CCSS using faith-based texts, it just demonstrates that the standards aren't bad - perhaps some texts are, however. Teachers and parents must be vigilant about adopting texts in their school systems, which is a local decision, by the way - not a federal or state. In my state, parents serve on our local text committees-that helps.

Very good explanation. The PISA test has similar goals but is more global. We need this kind of progress testing to hold teachers accountable. Sadly too many want to shun accountability and just teach woke ideology.
The standards for a high school senior will be the same for an LA kid in 12th grade as a kid in Shanghai- in third grade.
"What if the stair case is too high" - just let the state make them shorter so everyone can compete on fair stairs.....
This is programing our children to be good robots. What happened to being an individual. This is about money, power and control over what people think. As a teacher a student needs to use his own abilities without competition so they have self-esteem.
I don't understand, is CC about what a student has to know at the end of a certain grade or telling teachers what to teach at each grade?
Common core is a set of standards that says what students are supposed to be able to do at the end of the school year. Common Core doesn't tell what teachers are supposed to teach.
The video is much better than the top comments make it look; I don't know why I'm surprised.
Just b/c a state approves a text doesn't mean it will be used in schools. Some texts are meant only for astute AP students. In our state, parents serve on our state and local textbook committees. That helps a lot - we partner with one another to better serve our children. We have more local control that we've had in years (I still want more); however, I can tell you that the CCSS has nothing to do with that.
The video I'm seeing has subtitles which partially cover the screen. This is very distracting. I don't find any way to remove them.
People are not machines-they are people. People are different. They don't have the same educational needs or abilities. We don't need "common", we need individual. We need to individualize education to meet the needs of the individual student. CC doesn't do that & it can't do that. Until we stop looking at education in the same manner we look at an assembly line we will never truly educate. Learning at the same rate-faster or slower, IS the problem. We need to recognize people are individuals.
As a future educator, I have state that, while I do not approve of nor do I endorse Common Core as an effective system, the creators of this video did do an excellent of explaining why it exists in the first place. Should Common Core be used in our schools? I don't personally think so, but I don't really have a choice in the matter as a singular teacher, and so this video is very helpful and educational for me.
And so states/schools can still decide what order to teach material as long as their students know it all by the next checkpoint? And are we absolutely sure that the common core "staircase" matches international standards? And if it does, are schools ready for such a radical change so quickly? I mean, if what this video says is true, some districts will have no problem getting up to speed with the new system, while others will be having an absurd struggle getting into it. This is conflicting.
Consistency of standards and expectations leads to forever lessening standards and expectations to meet the lowest common denominator.
You describe the problem Reagan found in 1980s! LOCALS allowed degradation because they depended on publishers to keep high quality but parents complained about the strange & challenging classwork intended to stimulate minds to produce flexible THINKING problem solvers!
Why do parents demand mindless memorizing recipe (algorithm) followers instead?
@@FlashToso because if the parents can't understand it they think it's too hard for their child.
However a parent who has been out of school for 15 years has a highly specified knowledge pool, typically defined by what they use everyday.
If a parent no longer uses 10th grade algebra, they will find 10th grade algebra too difficult for themselves and believe the curriculum to be to hard for their child.
@@alecpitts6843 Common Core IS everyday math or should be- understanding concepts to problem solvers, not just human calculators.
Memorizing methods leads to forgetting the process, UNDERSTANDING the process makes remembering easier.
Great video outlining the facts on common core state standards. I sense some fear in a few comments shared. These fears are very natural when we are misinformed and choose not to focus on the purpose. Although expository reading is very much emphasized under INFORMATIONAL TEXT in the common core, Facts and Opinion is also embedded in the WRITING Standards. Blooms Toxonomy of higher order thinking skills permeates the CCSS. Examples: Determine, compare, explain, describe, analyze, create.
Let me try Common Corespeak. Jon's video played for 3 minutes at the lunch pep rally, Jan's video played for 10 seconds at the breakfast rally. Dan skipped school and burned a CD. Who would need more chairs for the dinner rally ? Answer: Xanax.
Common core did kids dirty. So happy I homeschool.
we all need to get involved and go to NO to COMMON CORE and get to work where ever you live
As a teacher, I am glad to have the common core state standards implemented. Before, there were too many standards and it was geared to the test. However, I do not agree with this video about the common core. We can not compare to other countries because they are at different standards then us and they view education differently. What the common core does is break down what our end goals should be and focuses on what students CAN learn not what they must learn.
If the top of the staircase in math is "being able to manage a budget", we do have clear standards. Clearly way too low.
They're making sure ALL students meet the standards, by taking out all the high points and making them so low that ANY student can get there. Our good students will spend 12 years learning what they used to learn in about 4, if they aren't given a way out of this.
And they're not supposed to have a way out, because that would not be fair to the others!?
Last year we were introduced in to the new and improved Common Core learning standard. They just basically shoved the textbook at us and said "Learn it!" but we were supposed to learn all this crap in the earlier grades. So everybody's angry at kids saying things we aren't studying and getting bad grades on purpose. Also, my math units are supposed to be in a 60 minute segment but we've only got 42 minutes. Poor math teacher. Screw the system
Been teaching 20 years and am extremely familiar with past and current English Language Arts standards, including the CCSS. I assure you the expectations are higher than they've even been. Less "sitting and getting" in the classroom and more thinking, applying, creating, etc. As a mom and teacher (who is also uber Conservative), I would shout from every rooftop if these claims were true. They're simply not. I encourage folks to read the standards - doing so will answer many questions.
I have to agree with most on here. CC is nothing more than an assembly line for children. I struggled with algebra and beyond when I was in HS but nailed sciences and english. My grandmother made sure I got the help I needed with my math. It wasn't until I got to college that I had my Aha moment with math and it all started to click. A lot of the problems reside in parents that don't care and teachers that are only in it for the paycheck. We the People need to take our schools back.
Teachers in it for the paycheck ... they are paid sooooooo low...
@2:01 - why can't the steps be normal? After every school you have to make a flat line to make sure everyone is equal?
U.S. ed is still LOCALLY controlled! Ask educators!
Common Core does not only teach math, where 2+2=5 ("it's all in the way a student shows how"). It also teaches how Collectivism makes a better society. It's all about dumbing down our children, History in CC is laughable, Ebonics are okay for Black children, Gender Identity teaching is taught to be accepted. 67% of high school graduates failed their SAT's last year after only a few years of Common Core, more than any other time in History. Government officials send their kids to private schools.
From a messaging stand point - they did a very good job in this video. The problem is the content is based on half truths and down right lies!
Wait!!! Learning to count to 100 will lead to being able to balance a budget???
HOW does that explain a president with two college degrees who can't figure out that BORROWING 60 cents of every dollar he spends IS NOT HELPING OUR ECONOMY???
Well at the end of the day education is a system to creating the future workforce. Getting the best paid job is a capitalist ideal. Common Core gives skills to students that they will need in the future. Look at centralized educational systems in Europe and Eastern Asia, they are achieving leaps and bounds past the United States. I am not saying CC is perfect, but it is the reform that the U.S. educational system needs.
I have continuously fought "Common Core" with our local USD and have gone the extra effort to teach my children the proper way of doing math and now over a year later my son is far more advanced than any of his classmates in mathematical capabilities. If this is the desired result then common core works. If the curriculum is supposed to be the solution then the responsible parties should be hung out to dry as complete failures to whatever departments that they represent.
Try reading the text, at 1:49, "Sulfides east and decreases the landing on the staircase i'll stop along the way" Hmmm, what school she went?
I am a language maniac. I am in 9th grade, and doing serious study of Latin, Spanish, Japanese, and Language Construction. However, I have never found math to be an engaging subject or really something I'm good at. Saying that everybody has to learn the same pace for everything is ridiculous.
The real question is why the state standards are different. In Singapore theres a national wide exam thats the same for the whole country and is marked to show the overall standard equally which forces all our regions to teach the same standard
When our supply comes from the grace within, we are in harmony where there is no competition, but cooperation. You always receive what is right for you, if you trust. All things work for good. Life is not about beating out the other person but coming from love to create in unity and expand our wellbeing that is reality.
At the base of case for common core, is the assumption that state education departments, and local school boards are...incompetent. Is there any other way to understand this? Do we really believe that?
This doesn't actually seem bad, this describes setting national benchmarks. I worry though, because this video doesn't seem to address the issue I've seen pop up all over the web; where students are being taught that statements like 2+2 = 5 are okay, if they believe that's the case. That is not okay.
Yeah I'm not frustrated that NC's education holds higher standards than SC's education. I just feel that it would be better if each state held high standards when it comes to education. I guess some people might have this mentality that we should all have standards that equal to the weakest link, but I don't see it that way. I can understand giving independence and trust in teachers to have the freedom to teach how they feel, but with that said I would prefer....to be continued...
The book is called "United States History: Preparing for the Advanced Placement Examination". Besides, if you need evidence so bad, you should find it yourself. I commend you on not believing what people tell you. More people should be like this. It is how I questioned this program in the first place. I don't believe it will benefit our educational system. So go and find info. I don't know about "brainwashing" but there is curriculum I don't want for this country's children.=(
The problem with this is, in my 7th grade math class the whole system is basically based around working in groups, and pairing the smart people, with the dumb ones and having the smart people do all the work for the dumb people just so they can pass the class. Whilst the dumb people learning nothing, of course.
continued... that students are learning the same material on the same grade level throughout the schools across the states. I have an idea that would probably be too much to put on youtube comments with the characters limits. I wouldn't say I agree completely with CCSS, but I see the best route is take certain influences from various different education models. I mean you look at somewhere like Finland and South Korea. They're both at the top but their models are almost opposite. TBC...
You are right, I really want my children to be starving artists (many artists view those doing commercial art as non-artists because they are mostly just drawing someone else's ideas).
I want my children to do what they want, I just want them to realize the real value of anything is only what someone else is willing to pay for it. If they want to trade money or power for lifestyle they will at least make this as an informed decision maker. Children should be taught to keep every door open.
Read the other comments. This video doesn't explain how messed up the system is, and Everyone works at different paces, so nobody will be on the same level.
Do other countries use common core?
What happened the the word competition??
If you spoke to any of my students or their parents, they'd tell you I did just that, and I did it addressing the CCSS (long before we had ever heard of Common Core). I'm thrilled to hear you say you want your kids "discovering" and "making personal connections" - both drove my instruction. To hear some talk now, I'd be accused of socialism, indoctrination, and/or invading privacy to asking my students to respond to text or societal issues. Sounds like we're very like-minded after all.
Considering that most K-12 text books are made for the Texas school standards, and that race is still a big issue in this country, (despite what the Constitution or the Bill of Rights says), steering away from social allows these standards to be more easily accepted by all states.
