California's Conditions on National Standards

Patrick Riccards, blogging at eduflack, reports that California has signed onto the national-standards effort, but (wisely in my opinion) has placed conditions on its commitment to adhering to the outcome of the process. A decade ago I was a participant in the drafting of California's academic-content standards. These standards have been judged (by the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation and by the American Federation of Teachers) as among the clearest and most rigorous in America , and it would be a shame to water them down in the name of national commonality. Congratulations to Governor Schwarzenegger and California ed officials for their sensible letter setting forth the conditions on the state's involvement.

  1. I agree! I wonder why it is that California does not get press for how beautifully articulated and laid-out is is. For that matter, as you mentioned, California's standards are the most rigorous in the nation. Where does California go from here?

  6. All my former college mates and friends at the university are fond of the best writing service that focuses on the evolution of any theme or idea in Goodexamplepapers.com free examples of essays suggested by educators worldwide. Studying knowledgeable facts as much as keeping in mind gained experience may require huge personal brain resources of both the undergraduates and postgraduates. It comes as a rule that useful information is worthy looking for it.

  7. Megaplex Keto Blend Taking into account the aforementioned points, it is unfortunate to note that there are actually some weight loss programs that in an attempt to show prompt results incorporate the use of diuretics to give the illusion of weight loss. Diuretics, both drugs and diuretic herbs, promote body water loss through the kidneys. Apart from these diet programs leading to body water loss which easily shows up on the bathroom, the dieter risks getting dehydrated.

  11. Vital Nutrition Keto Control This is one of the most common weight loss myths out there. It is illogical to think that your health and weight are going to be in balance if your nutrition consists mainly of twinkies, chips, and donuts. Sure you can burn it off by exercising, but most people whose diet consists of mainly junk food are probably not disciplined enough to stick to a workout routine. I do know a few people who, from the outside, look like they are in good shape, because they are not "fat, but who have high cholesterol.

  17. New You Keto Actually, the natural course of weight loss is to experience a quick loss of weight resulting from the loss of water from body tissues which is then subsequently followed by a significant slowdown in fat loss as the body now switches to burning its fat stores to meet it energy needs. After the initial rapid bodyweight reduction phase of a weight loss program, the rate of further healthy fat loss should be somewhere around 1-2 pounds per week, or slightly more depending on the individual's make-up.

  20. Luxe Trim 1 If intense for you is working out for an hour a day, but due to life's busy schedule you only have time for 20 minutes a day, then those 20 minutes will go an extremely long way. It might not necessarily be classified as "intense", according to your definition, but those little cardio moments will have positive health altering effects.

  23. Electro Keto After experiencing the initial rapid weight loss, it is too often the case that a lot of dieters who make use of such quick fat reduction products find that they simply start losing hope as their fat loss rate almost always grinds to a snail pace. And while it might be great if all the bodyweight reduction experienced during the initial phase of the diet program was actually from body fat, the fact is that this is not the case.

  26. InstaHard You will find numerous male enhancement items available for sale. The manufacturers of these items make ample offers to men like growing your penis as big as you want, enhancing the sexual drive and much more. The promises of the manufacturers creating these types of solutions, whether we are talking about penile enhancement pills, creams, patches or other things, are occasionally true and often false. Whether or not they're true or false, the promises produced by many makers are also sometimes exaggerated.
