Common Core State Standards have been in force in Kentucky since 2010, but there has been a real paucity of information about the problems with the creation and content of these public school curriculum drivers.

Finally, the Kentucky Senate’s Education Committee invited three national experts on Common Core to testify this past week on March 13, 2014. The comments sharpen a picture that the media and pro-Core fans have wanted to keep blurred.

I’ve already posted videos of meeting testimony from Dr. Sandra Stotsky on with deficiencies in the English Language Arts part of Common Core and from Dr. James Milgram on mathematics problems.

Now, this video adds comments from Joy Pullmann, Heartland Institute researcher, who discusses some of the science standards problems and other issues involved with Kentucky’s acceptance of Common Core and NextGen Science as Kentucky’s only standards for math, English language arts, and science.

Listen closely; over the past three years it has become painfully apparent that you are not going to hear the “other side of the story” from most media sources in the Bluegrass State. But, these problems are real, and they impact your kids.
