Emphasis on only 26 states seems misplaced

[edit]

According to the article in the New York Times,[1] 26 states participated in developing the standards but additional states may adopt the standards. They were, after all, just released this month, right? This WP article makes it sound as if the remaining 24 states have rejected the standards, but it seems like that isn't necessarily so. If it's okay, I'd like to adjust the language a bit. TimidGuy (talk) 10:41, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Now that I've looked at the sources, I'm starting to think that the wording may not be in accord with the Wikipedia policy of no original research. As far as I can see, none of the sources compare the adoption of Common Core standards with the Next Generation Standards. And the comparison seems problematic, given that it's as yet unknown how many additional states will adopt the standards. TimidGuy (talk) 10:48, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the Fort Mill source indicates that although a state participated in developing the standards, it still remains for the state to adopt the standards. So it's apparently not the case that 26 states have adopted the standards. I think we need to reword this so that it's clear that states are in the process of adopting the guidelines.

use of "federal-led" in the first sentence

[edit]

I don't know how the term "federal" made it onto the page for NGSS. The NGSS development process was not a federally led effort, but was primarily funded through the Carnegie Corporation of New York, a well-known philanthropic organization. The science in the standards was based on the National Resource Council's framework, but that is a separate document and was developed through a separate process. I don't know how to edit Wiki pages and because I work for the organization that brought the states and writers together for NGSS development, I don't want to be accused of editing the page myself. Who can help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chad6000 (talkcontribs) 17:51, 17 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
