One where white students perform along the lines of the best in the world\u2014with achievement comparable to countries like Finland and Korea. And another America, where Black and Latino students perform comparably to the students in the lowest performing OECD countries, such as Chile and Greece.<\/p>\n<p>And for all students in U.S. public schools, the percentage of high school graduates who enroll in postsecondary institutions has remained essentially flat.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Regarding his Common Core initiative, the billionaire philanthropist continued:<!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>[W]e \u2026 backed the Common Core because we believed, and still believe, that all students \u2013 no matter where they go to school \u2013 should graduate with the skills and knowledge to succeed after high school. It\u2019s exciting to see how the standards are being brought to life in schools and classrooms. But more needs to be done to fully realize their potential.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Teachers need better curricula and professional development aligned with the Common Core. And we see that they benefit the most from professional development when they are working with colleagues to tackle the real problems confronting their students.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Gates said his foundation, however, has abandoned teacher accountability based on student performance on Common Core-aligned tests. Though part of the initial Common Core \u201cpackage\u201d that was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/big-government\/2015\/09\/16\/feds-admit-u-s-education-department-forced-states-accept-common-core-start\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">pushed<\/a> on states by the Obama administration, teacher unions fought back against the evaluation piece.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[W]e will no longer invest directly in new initiatives based on teacher evaluations and ratings,\u201d Gates said, adding his foundation \u201cwill continue to gather data on the impact of these systems and encourage the use of these systems to improve instruction at the local level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What Gates says he will invest in now are \u201clocally-driven solutions identified by networks of schools\u201d and student data collection to allow for \u201cevidence-based interventions to improve student achievement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gates\u2019s foundation will also support designing \u201ccurricula and professional development aligned to state standards,\u201d and \u201cthe development of high-quality charter schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rick Hess, the director of education policy at the American Enterprise Institute \u2013 a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gatesfoundation.org\/How-We-Work\/Quick-Links\/Grants-Database#q\/k=American%20Enterprise%20Institute\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">recipient<\/a> of over $6 million in Gates Foundation grants \u2013 praised Gates\u2019s intentions to tackle improvements in education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do have to experiment. We do have to learn things,\u201d Hess <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/education\/billionaire-bill-gates-announces-a-17-billion-investment-in-us-schools\/2017\/10\/19\/9938f11c-b4eb-11e7-a908-a3470754bbb9_story.html?utm_term=.5a1d6f43aeb3\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">told<\/a> the <em>Washington Post<\/em>. \u201cWe want to have people put their time and energy and resources into making schools better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Still, Hess admits Gates\u2019s ideas \u201chave been all over the map and the foundation\u2019s latest pitch seems to represent another change in direction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt feels like they have pivoted through a number of strategies over the last decade or two,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>However, Ze\u2019ev Wurman, former education policy advisor in the President George W. Bush education department, tells Breitbart News, \u201cSuch \u2018pivoting\u2019 may be acceptable in the private market, where companies regularly \u2018pivot\u2019 while abandoning previous strategies and the money they invested in them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He continues:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>It is different when a private actor such as Gates uses his money to leverage public money \u2013 some $600 billion of it for his own relatively small investment of few tens of millions every year \u2013 to steer the public money to implement mediocre curricula and ill thought-out programs born of his feverish imagination and ignorance. Yet that is precisely the track record \u2013 and the explicit acknowledgement \u2013 of Mr. Gates.<\/p>\n<p>So Bill Gates\u2019 pivoting is not just a matter for Mr. Gates losing his own money. It is an admission that he actively helped to misdirect some 4 TRILLION educational dollars over the last seven years, and that he harmed tens of millions of students during that time by imposing the mediocre and intrusive Common Core upon the nation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Referencing Hess\u2019s comment, \u201cWe have to experiment,\u201d Wurman says he agrees with the basic principle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYet that is not what Bill Gates does \u2013 he swamps the system with his \u2018free\u2019 money, massively affecting the whole system though his \u2018philanthropy,\u2019\u201d he explains. \u201cExposing millions of children at one shot, without their parents\u2019 knowledge or agreement, to harebrained educational experimentation is not the experimentation we need. From Mr. Gates or from anyone else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oklahoma parent activist Jenni White \u2013 who has led the anti-Common Core effort in that state for nearly a decade \u2013 says Gates\u2019s money is always welcomed by government education officials because schools are \u201cperennially unfunded.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter that no new education idea Gates has backed with his gazillions of dollars has worked \u2013 money is money,\u201d she tells Breitbart News. \u201cIf government educrats were in any way savvy, they\u2019d look at some of the programming he last threw his money to, see them as the dismal failures they are, and tell Gates to keep his dollars to himself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>White explains:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Gates\u2019s effort at Turning Around Failing Schools was not only widely panned by education pundits, but also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/education\/obama-administration-spent-billions-to-fix-failing-schools-and-it-didnt-work\/2017\/01\/19\/6d24ac1a-de6d-11e6-ad42-f3375f271c9c_story.html?utm_term=.8c34c1683498\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">shown to be an utter failure <\/a>by the federal education bureaucracy through which it was supported. In addition, the Common Core State Standards initiative, for which Gates\u2019s support is most infamous, has done little but create a new education solar system around which anybody and their dog can create curricula and ancillaries to sell on the open market \u2013 whether Common Core aligned or not. In fact, researching the state reading and math scores of Kentucky, a very early supporter of the Standards, provides zero evidence that Kentucky students \u2013 the one group Gates was to have served with the project \u2013 have benefitted in any way from their use.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Many supporters of federalism and a return to local control of education also argue cronyism infiltrates public education when wealthy private donors pour much-desired dollars into public projects, demanding attention paid to their pet projects.<\/p>\n<p>Jane Robbins, senior fellow at American Principles Project \u2013 an organization that has assisted parent activists across the nation battle against big business and industry groups that support Common Core \u2013 says Gates is interfering in a process that should be led by parents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Bill Gates wants to use his billions to build a chain of private schools that will operate according to his theories, more power to him,\u201d she tells Breitbart News. \u201cHe could even provide scholarships to kids whose parents want them to participate in his experiment. But he has no right to use his great wealth to dictate public policy. Parents, not Gates, should be controlling what happens in their local schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>White says, however, that parents \u201cby and large, have abdicated their children to a system willing to sacrifice education for the almighty dollar.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnfortunately, Gates will always have a place to pawn his wealth and drive education policy further away from excellence just because he can,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Let&#039;s block ads!<\/a><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/acceptable.html\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">(Why?)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/big-government\/2017\/10\/21\/common-core-backer-bill-gates-announces-plan-invest-1-7-billion-public-education\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a>Original Article<\/p>\n<div id=\"contfix\">\n<div id=\"contdto\">         <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bnreport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/BB-logo-highres-190.jpg\"\/> <\/p>\n<h4 id=\"contfixlink\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Breitbart<\/a><\/h4>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has announced his latest pla..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12724,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12723","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
