Watch this video and ask, “what do you desire?” #commoncore? I think not.

Will schools in the coming years of CCSS and PARCC help students with what they desire? The makers of this video likely have no idea what is to come in education in the next few years. There was a stock image in the video of education: students sitting in desks, arranged in rows, and taking some kind of exam in a gymnasium. This is a very traditional image of education or schooling. If we are to believe that what is to come is truly transformative, as we are told, nay, marketed, then will this image no longer apply? Can you honestly say that it will change?

No. So, watch this video.
