There was some hand wringing over the politicization of standards writing post-Common Core, with legislatures taking an even more hands on approach.
I would say the most likely outcome of this will be for schools to pay even less attention to standards. In 2014, that means just worrying about the tests, in the optimistic future, it means paying more attention to kids and the world around them (writ large). Even at the peak of Common Core-mania, people weren't focused on the standards.
This ends with the whimper of fat binders pushed into a high corner of a bookshelf.
