Re: [LM_NET] Free the Standards for 21st Century Learners

Susan,

You have described the situation very well.  As a long time AASL member 
and former officer, I am amazed and ashamed of the organization's stance 
on the standards.  I'm not sure I can begin to defend such a stance in 
the current educational world!!!!

Of course, one would site the source of the standards in a presentation, 
curriculum document, or presentation.  But ask for permission???

Perhaps the powers that be should try reading Lessig's Remix.
