    2. Excellent teachers, whose students are failing, do not blame the students.

    --What constitutes something being a standard for education? How do these committees determine what should and should not be a standard for education?

    --"The national movement to create standards is dead of multiple wounds, some self-inflicted, others from culture wars, still others from congressional antipathy to any federal initiative, and most from American educators who have long insisted establishing a common core of academic learning." - pg. 296

    --Iowa is the only state in the US that does not have official state-mandated curriculum.

    "Planning is the systematic process of decoding what and how your students should learn."
