I'm yet to figure out why common core is so terrible?

Because it's a step towards a modern 21st Century education system, a potential death knell for the right.
This statement is meaningless.

Which kind of makes me wonder, was there a change in the methods of teaching and the way education was conducted in elementary and secondary school?

But NCLB basically set up the worst performing schools (compounded by terrible social problems) for failure.

CC is a different brand of crap. It assumes kids in Texas learn the same as in New York, and creates this soulless, almost industrially manufactured youth to provide "services." It doesn't teach kids HOW to think, it teaches them WHAT to think.

If you were trying to come up with something that was the complete opposite of true, you would almost have nailed it with this.

It seems many criticisms of Common Core contain about eight half-baked arguments disguised as one.
