Editor's Notes
- Who are the Common Core states? It's a loaded question. For CCSS to work, it has to be 100% of states. Or does it? If we are Common Core "by default," other markets cease to matter.

- What does CCSS expect in terms of testing? School librarians help with curriculum, but next wave of obligation will be testing -- time, space, technology.
- Computer-based assessments. Networks not ready. Computer preparation required. Locked-on browsers, specific versions of flash, javascript. Backporting iPads. Crazy man hours.

- NAEP cutoffs can be discouraging, even to the best and brightest. Duncan said scores are a valid indictment of both our schools and children, but reality is they are too punitive.
- CCSS will remain a political hot potato -- a states' rights legacy. First it was text exemplars, then testing and data reporting, but my biggest problem is that the design of the CCSS standards and their adoption was not and continues not to be transparent.

- CCSS is not 1:1 (beyond assessment). It's not formative assessments. It's not merit-based pay, though it lays some of the architecture for that. It's not getting rid of your librarian, or replacing your library aide with a computer technician. It is the thin end of the wedge, the excuse for states and districts to implement new policies and initiatives.
