Old Standards vs Common Core?

[Tammy Young]

With all of the controversy over Common Core. 

Do you prefer Old Standards or Common Core?  

[Joey Lehrman]

Hey Tammy! Thanks for posting a thought-provoking question. And I think it's important we talk about topics like this, especially since it will impact the educational experience of students across America.

What does everyone think? Can anyone find an article to post that looks at the pros and cons of each? Reading about it might help us have an informed discussion!
