Weighing in with Secretary Duncan

While Secretary of Education is taking his listening tour on the road, this being the Obama administration, he's also taking it online.
Each week, he'll post a question and ask for answers. On May 11, he asked:

Many states in America are independently considering adopting internationally-benchmarked, college and career-ready standards. Is raising standards a good idea? How should we go about it?

Comments are still open, and it looks as though it's being read. Weigh in!
I'll try to remember to post updates here when he posts a new question. If you want to check the updates yourself, you'll find the blog at http://www.edgovblogs.org/duncan/topic/listening-tour/
