State of the State Math Standards 2005 by David Klein (Fordham) This report creates a report card for each state in the quality of their math program prior to Common Core. Remember Fordham is biased toward CC and this report was created in 2005. Common Core was already on the drawing board. Was this report created in order to promote Common Core???? But I find this valuable information to support this argument: Why did we have to restructure the education system in all states when there are clearly many states that are performing at an A level. Why not just take what the best performing states are using? Why not research what other successful states are doing? Gee when I was in business and we had a department that was performing better than another department we found out what they were doing right and adopted that into the department that was doing it wrong!!!
