Common Core Panel Discussion at the NPE Conference, March 2, 2014 on Vimeo:







Since No Child Left Behind, no national program has met more controversy than the Common Core. In this featured panel, educators will discuss the challenges we face with the Common Core. Should we embrace the standards but reject the high stakes tests? Or should we oppose the whole project? How can we offer a clear alternative to top down reform, and advocate clearly for our students in this context?

Moderator: Anthony Cody Panelists: Paul Horton, Geralyn Bywater McLaughlin, Mercedes Schneider, Jose Luis Vilson, Randi Weingarten
