I read a piece by Cory Doctorow called Standardized testing and schools as factories: Louis CK versus Common Core which talks about a comedian who dislikes the application of Common Core.
I'm not writing to defend Common Core, at least not fully. People around our district that talk about it seem to have a limited understanding or a skewed perspective on what it is. I think the problems with Common Core are often not what people most frequently surface.
