As a parent of 2 children, one educated prior to the implementation of Common Core and one currently in the thick of it, I am thankful for the research and writings of Nicholas Tampio. I have seen first hand the decline in the quality of education in our schools since it’s implementation. While the media and various other organizations continue to spew rhetoric surrounding the standards, Mr. Tampio takes the conversation to a higher level and provides an accurate and in-depth discussion on all the major issues surrounding the Common Core State (National) Standards. It is a standards problem, not an implementation problem. This book is a must read, not only for those directly involved in education, but parents, policymakers and business leaders alike. Our future generations of artists, inventors, entrepreneurs and thinkers are at stake.
