“21st Century Learning Skills” has become the “MANTRA” of progressive educators in hopes of implementing a total transformation in how students are taught with the end result being globalization, diversity and equity. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!! Watch the video below and see what our educators have in mind when it comes to teaching you child…America will not last under this transformation which has a foothold in our Texas Schools.
America’s sovereignty is being torn apart at the seams and the Texas Education Agency is contributing to its demise. Through State, Federal and Grant funding the Texas Education Agency has set up Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Academies across the State of Texas. STEM Academies work to transform the way students are educated with the use of a Marxist teaching philosophy of Project Based Learning (PBL). PBL is based on the collective and not individual achievement. Absolute truth is not taught and everything is up for debate within a collective group.
The idea of project based learning is to create diversity and equity; with the United Nations is backing the agenda. IRINA BOKAVA, the Director General of UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organizations, (UNESCO) was quoted as saying….
It does not take long with a little research to see the tie to Obama’s agenda, global organizations and STEM. Don’t get me wrong I love the STEM disciplines but the STEM flag being waved here takes on a whole new agenda than just educating your children… the goad is a total transformation

I spent thousands of dollars sending my daughter to Texas A&M, what I thought was a conservative Texas University. I am finding out every day that A&M it is not as conservative as I once imagined. For example, the Texas A&M Aggie T-STEM department is all about transforming our education system K-16 from conservative traditional based learning to a progressive project based learning. This is being done via grants and the program is called Texas A&M T-STEM Academy. The goals of T-STEM are outlined HERE.
Texas A & M T-STEM Academy is working with other T-Stem Academies including, the Texas Education Service Centers (created CSCOPE) and the Texas Education Agency to accomplish their progressive goal of implementing Project Based Learning (PBL).
On the Texas A&M’s T-STEM Website you will find information describing the vision and intent of T-STEM. After evaluating CSCOPE lessons, I didn’t think I could be shocked by instruction material, but I was wrong.
Education is the one industry that is making money by making changes from traditional learning to Project Based Learning (PBL). You might be asking yourselves, “So What’s the Big Deal?” The answer is that while learning styles come and go, but PBL is not just a teaching technique. PBL is a progressive movement that promotes setting facts aside and allowing students to create their own understanding of the world around them. Even this is not what PBL is. Instead, while students are given freedom to make their own choices, the list of choices are manipulative. Students are being trained via PBL to embrace progressive, socialist ideology.
Parents, you cannot trust the state or federal education agency to know what your child should be taught. This is because these agencies are no longer focused on educating students in reading, writing, science, and math. Instead, they are focused on their social and emotional development. This is the job of parents, not public schools. There are grants providing millions of dollars to PBL learning, which is focused on your child’s social behavior and emotional development. Project Based Learning is the framework of the CSCOPE lessons as well as Common Core. In other words, Texas Schools who have been using CSCOPE already have the framework of Project Based Learning implemented. Thus, CSCOPE schools have the Common Core Project Based Learning in place. Its a small adjustment to replace the TEKS with the Common Core standards.
Teachers are no longer given the option to avoid standards that are biased toward socialism or some specific religion. Whether its the CSCOPE Micromanaging System or something else administrators (with a need to be in control) implement, the state standards, be they the TEKS or Common Core have become law. Since TEA and the State Education Service Centers promote Project Based Learning, it really doesn’t matter what the state standards are, its how they are implemented in student lessons. We have seen this with CSCOPE lessons promoting the Islamic religion to satisfy the state standard to teach about different religions. Yes, the standards do matter. But how teachers implement them is so much more important.
The following information is from the TEA’s website. This lets you know that TEA is supporting Project Based Learning.
I found the following powerpoint on T-STEM site. The following is a screen shot of one of the slides promoting the environmental leftist propoganda website “The Story of Stuff” which is filled with numerous untruths in hopes in indoctrinating our children.
As Lou Dobbs states in the following news cast on CNN “The Story of Stuff” video has no place in our school system.
