  • Rethinking Schools
    Home > Archives > Volume 27 No.4 - Summer 2013 The Trouble with the Common Core BY THE EDITORS OF RETHINKING SCHOOLS Ethan Heitner It isn't easy to find common ground on the Common Core. Already hailed as the “next big thing” in education reform, the Common Core State Standards are being rushed into classrooms in nearly every district in the country. Although these “world-class” standards raise substantive questions about curriculum choices and instructional practices, such educational concerns are likely to prove less significant than the role the Common Core is playing in the larger landscape of our polarized education reform politics. We know there have been many positive claims made for the Common Core: That it represents a tighter set of smarter standards focused on developing critical learning skills instead of mastering fragmented bits of knowledge. That it requires more progressive, student-centered teaching with strong elements of collaborative and reflective learning. That it equalizes the playing field by raising expectations for all children, especially those suffering the worst effects of the “drill and kill” test prep norms of the recent past. We also know that many creative, heroic teachers are seeking ways to use this latest reform wave to serve their students well. Especially in the current interim between the rollout of the standards and the arrival of the tests, some teachers have embraced the Common Core as an alternative to the scripted commercial formulas of recent experience, and are trying to use the space opened up by the Common Core transition to do positive things in their classrooms.

PANEL II FAMILY LAW AND INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY William Kristol t INTRODUCTION Welcome to the second panel of The Federalist Society Confer- ence on Individual Responsibility and the Law. I am Bill Kristol, and I will be moderating this panel of four excellent panelists who will make brief presentations and a quick round of comments. Then we will open the floor for questions. The general topic of this conference, as you all know, is individ- ual responsibility and the law. It seems to me that virtually all previ- ous Federalist Society conferences have focused on rights or some particular right, such as the right to free speech, or the right to free- dom of religion. The organizers of this conference, on the other hand, want to remind us that with rights come responsibilities-a useful reminder. And I think it is particularly appropriate in this context to have a panel on family law and individual responsibility.
