Very true! Back when I first started teaching in public schools (1980s), we teachers determined our own curricula. The math teachers would meet as a group, the English teachers would meet as a group, etc. We knew what our kids needed.

That all changed around 2005. As you noted, Ed majors with the latest garbage “research” took over. I told a story about that in my post #17.
