One thing you can rest assured of is, if an initiative is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation a liberal left leaning progressive agenda is in play. Such as the Common Core State Standards which are destroying the education of America”s students nationwide. Though Common Core was not officially adopted in Texas the education establishment has been working behind the scenes on implementing Common Core in Texas Schools under the name Cscope, as well as other names such as Project Based Learning (PBL) etc. The University of Texas’s Charles A.. Dana Center funded greatly by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation actively promotes and works at implementing Common Core. The similarities between Cscope and Common Core are identical (Assessments, classroom walkthroughs, Vertical Alignment Docs,etc). The Dana Center was behind the specificity of Cscope’s vertical alignment documents (see photo below).
Due to the work of the Dana Center and other education establishments implementing common core, Cscope and project based learning good teachers are frustrated and leaving the profession and our children are suffering academically. The progressive left are no longer with educating students but creating a workforce. Equity (socialism), Diversity and Globalization are the goals behind this radical transformation of Americas Education System.
