Obama Signs No Child Left Behind Rewrite Into Law
Obama signs No Child Left Behind rewrite into law
I'm just throwing this out there, but common core is really blown up into something terrible that it is not. Common core does not dictate curricula, at all, it just gives a list of goals that students need to accomplish; how they accomplish these goals is mostly up to the teacher. I admit I haven't read all of the math one, but from what I have seen is that the goals encourage new and unique ways to do math beyond pure memorization. THIS is what has created all of these sometimes over-the-top math methods that people make into pictures to laugh at common core with. But the methods are made by the teachers, not common core.
For me common core has always been a sort of check-list. I usually don't even have to look at it to make sure my lesson plans cover a standard, it is honestly hard not to touch on any standard unless you have no idea what you are doing as a teacher. Then if there are standards I haven't covered I'll make a lesson just for that... honestly the standards are as vague as tarot card readings, you can make plenty of things fit each one.
On the actual law... I just hope this does SOMETHING to fix the hell that is standardized testing. Those tests take up tons of teaching time to teach students how to pass these poorly made tests instead of actually learning.

Also, cursive is functionally useless in today's world, I wish schools would do more to improve curriculum like that.
Even then, by loosely its EXTREMELY loose. I pretty much just make sure the first letters of the first and last name are legible then attempt cursive scripts (Although, cursive writing is more appreciated in my visual communications courses because you make lettering look fancy and pretty).

Common Core is extremely useful for one thing and one thing only.
Another nail in the coffin of Jeb!'s campaign.

Everyone needs to stop and understand one thing first, "Common Core" everything was designed by test makers and not by teachers, professors or math experts. The entire system is designed for kids to score high on specific tests and to force schools to purchase specialized CC teaching programs, not to actually teach them anything. The federal government is screwing it up by using "free" education money and in incentive to force schools to follow chose tests, curriculum's and guidelines. If a state chooses not to go with CC then they risk losing access to that money for other programs, which since most states are hard up for education cash is a pretty bad thing to have happen.

Chanti, you wouldn't know corporate welfare if it came up and slapped you in the face.
Education allocated funds from the federal government are scarce to most states. Those states usually have to take the money from their own General Fund to help pay for that state's education.
Not everyone's like Texas where they can support most of their education expenses. Some states like Pennsylvania don't have the economic resources like Texas.

Wait, do you honestly think that only governments create jobs?
Edit: Let me elaborate, do you honestly think that only governments move the economy or create wealth in an area (in this case, a state).
Also, you make it sound like PA doesn't receive as much government contracts or federal government revenue proportional to Texas, which is, of course, ignorant for you to assume.
Obviously you don't know anything about governmental contracts or appropriations of either the federal or state levels.

Hell, how much of the Texas economy depends on that?
Hint: Not even 10% of the Texas economy depends on the federal government and military.
Sure, it would be a blow if both were to go away, but considering that Texas doesn't depend on it to sustain itself, and actually depends more on private industry to create jobs (you know, those evil companies you liberals hate so much), I would have to say that any notion that government creates jobs anywhere close to private industry is ludicrous at best.

My calculation was a little off, it's really ~11% (17,125,600,000/158,629,720,000).
Unless there's a paper out there that's published for free that shows the actual economic effect of the federal government on Texas's economy, this is the best method to determine the total effect, although it's really the effect on the federal government on the Texas government's books. I think that is a reasonable assumption that federal government plays just as much role on the state government as it does on the total economy for Texas.
If you don't agree with me, you are more than welcome to show your own analysis. I highly doubt anyone here would.

Education money is just scarce in general, it's expensive running an education system when the federal government is taking the lions share of taxes and then redistributing it. States feel compelled to follow federal policy in order to shore up their budgets.
Hell that was one of the strongest arguments in Colorado and Washington for the legalization of Cannabis. They argued the tax money accrued, from something already happening, combined with the savings from a lower case load would help them pay for a better education system, and it looks like they were right.
So marijuana is the key to education. Who would have guessed it.
