Proof The Bible Is True

“Near the end of the article he shares some views given him by retired propaganda operative Ellis Medavoy (pseudonym) in 1999 on how propaganda is not just about giving false information but also creating mass confusion in peoples minds. Is that what common core is designed to do?”  Admin

“In a tightly controlled setting, subjecting a young child to cognitive dissonance amounts to mind control.” (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)

For the sake of my argument here, I’m putting aside the fact that public education belongs under the purview of the states and not the federal government.

This article is about how the federal government decided Common Core would succeed.

I’m not going to recite brain-numbing examples of teaching basic math to very young children, under the Common Core system. Suffice it to say, I can add 9 and 6 and come up with the right answer. And I know why 9 and 6 equals 15. I don’t need Boolean algebra or set theory or a base-10 system to understand why addition works.

The bottom line on Common Core was articulated by Diane Ravitch in her 2013 book, Reign of Error. Ravitch writes:

“…these new [Common Core] standards had never been field-tested anywhere. No one can say with certainty whether the Common Core standards will improve education, whether they will reduce or increase achievement gaps among different groups, or how much it will cost to implement them. Some scholars believe they [Common Core standards] will make no difference, and some critics say they will cost billions to implement; others say they will lead to more testing.”

In short, whatever else Common Core is, it is an experimental hypothesis. It has never been field-tested.

No one knew how well it would work when it was proposed, implemented, and accepted. No one knows now.
