Building the Machine: A Film About the Common Core

Filed in Common Core State Standards by Shane Vander Hart on December 6, 2013 • 0 Comments

I just had the chance to watch the trailer of a movie being made by the Home School Legal Defense Association on the Common Core entitled Building the Machine.  It is going to be released online for free in February of 2014, and will be released in Spring of 2014 for festivals, DVDs and theaters.  I’m really looking forward to this.

It features nationally renowned experts in education including, E.D. Hirsch, Jr., Sandra Stotsky, Jim Milgram, among others.  You can watch the trailer below:
