In his speech, Coleman, in
referring to the College Board, stated he has now brought on Obama's reelection
team to develop his new Access to Rigor Campaign to collect and use data from
students he calls "low-hanging fruit."
The College Board will use
its existing and future data "vault" to profile low income and Latino
students from K-12 using the slogan "If they can go, they must go" to
college.
In order to pull this off,
the architect of the Common Core literally begs his audience--data
geeks "installed" within school districts and specialists from the
Strategic Data Project which is based in Harvard's Center for Education Policy
Research--to join him in finding these students and interacting with them
throughout their classroom years.
Coleman made it abundantly
clear he will concentrate on data mining our schoolchildren's proclivities. So,
how does intrusion into children's privacy through more accumulation of data
support Coleman's stated goals of making students career and college ready?
Now that many states have
awakened to the deficiencies in Common Core and are even moving to defund them,
Republican governors who bought Coleman's spiel three years ago need to redeem
themselves and investigate the nonprofit College Board's campaign to delve
further into the personal lives of our schoolchildren.
