It is a plan by the National Governor's Association and the federal government's [[United States Department of Education]] to nationalize the curriculum standards in [[public school]]s. [[Bill Gates]] is one of its primary [[liberal]] supporters. This policy has come under intense criticism, mainly because of how poorly the content is taught. A math problem, for instance, is performed in multiple, confusing steps, rather than doing the problem simplistically.
It is a plan by the National Governor's Association and the federal government's [[United States Department of Education]] to nationalize the curriculum standards in [[public school]]s. [[Bill Gates]] is one of its primary [[liberal]] supporters, and he uses his tremendous amount of wealth to keep this curriculum in place. This policy has come under intense criticism, mainly because of how poorly the content is taught.

The idea of Common Core was to make the educational system national. This means that if one moved from, say, Mississippi to, say, New Jersey, then they'd be learning the same content for their grade, rather than something different. Currently, for a grade such as ninth grade, one state might teach biology, while another might teach physics. Common Core's goal is to prevent this from happening, and make sure all of the ninth graders learn biology.
