I understand lots of teachers, my wife being a retired one, think it’s awful, but they’re generally curiously quiet as it comes time to speak up. Speaking up against academia seems to be universally known as counter-productive to one’s job security and retirement health.

Learning information by rote, without the structure of ‘why’, is never high quality.

It becomes a regurgitation of meaningless things.
No inferences.
No critical thinking.

Ideology education is this bull crap where they are not brainwashing children with truth, just drowning truth with self esteem, narcissism and ideological imaginative mindset.

It does not precisely tailor to a particular form of fascism, but certainly makes embryos ready to march after future Obamas. It is satanism behind “nice”.

This a rhetorical, and probably, stupid question.

Back in the day when we all walked thru 5 feet of snow, up hill, to school...what in the heck was wrong with the schools teaching education? In a way that was understandable? Actually, your self esteem wasn’t an issue. Passing or failing was. Some kids did better. Some did worse.

From what I can tell Common Core was intended to be some sort of international “competition”. That makes no sense. Some countries need different kinds of education.

There are more kids TODAY that can’t read well, spell, write or do math than in those halcyon days.

Bottom line...I don’t get Common Core...except it is some kind of control thing.
