the premise that 2 + 2 = 4 is “naive.”

George Orwell was possibly the greatest visionary who ever lived. He predicted this in 1984 (as he predicted so much else about the insanity that is liberalism) when Winston Smith was taught to "see" that if the party says 2+2=5, then indeed, 2+2=5. After the appropriate amount of torture, Winston Smith actually "saw" 5 fingers when his "teacher" held up 2 on each hand.

Teacher group: Math is ‘the domain of old, white men’

Wow...article and statements verified.

Fine.

Good luck working that nuclear power plant with no engineers.

Good luck designing that infrastructure without civil engineers.

Good luck creating that growth economy without business majors and accountants.

Good luck maintaining that "civilization thingy" with that attitude, you racist scumbags.

Bow down to your intellectual overlords, you ignorant, backwards @ss, uneducated ***s.

"Old white men" is clearly pejorative today.

I fully expect the subject of euthanasia as a solution to the exploding budget will become very popular with the multicultural left very soon. When they refer to the elderly they're referring to "old white men".

Radical Math was created by educator Jonathan Osler several years ago while teaching at El Puenta Academy in New Jersey. Osler taught Radical Math along-side Cathy Wilkerson, a former member of the Weather Underground Organization (with Bill Ayers) who once participated in a plot to detonate a nail bomb at a dance for military personnel at Fort Dix.


Weatherman Math-

Come the revolution, Weathermen are going to have to execute 25 million bourgeoisie reactionaries to consolidate the revolution.

If a firing squad uses 13 re eduction camp guards and each firing squad needs an average of 1.2 volleys to execute one pig, how many bullets does it take to execute all 25 million of the bourgeoisie pigs .

I’m gifted at math and so are my daughters. I get irritated with teachers who don’t respect people who are good at math. Ut’s a hell of a lot more relevant than the amount of creative writing my daughters have had to endure in their schooling.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Pathetic morons relying on pathetic morons, to teach kids to be pathetic morons, and to continue down the path of pathetic moronaty(?).
Because math just 1 of those things that have a right and wrong answer, therefore: RACIST!

Lot of contradictions here. Were higher mathematics invented by old, white Arabs? Or is this just another reason to be stoopit?

educators should find ways to relate math to the lives of their students.

If Javarian'te abandoned the two babies he fathered with Vulvalitis, 3 babies with Sylvanaqua and two more babies with Dareal'yst how many more babies dos he need to father to make a dozen?

(Hint a dozen is twelve)

That’s funny....

Two of the smartest people I’ve met in my life were also very good when it came to mathematics.

One of them was a male, but he was black. He had a Ph.D in Quantum Physics.

the other was a female and she was half-Japanese, half-Israeli. She switched from an engineering degree to a math degree and ended up graduating with a 4.0 GPA from Ohio State.

I’m sure there are plenty of other examples that completely belie this stupid assertion from the terrorists Bill Ayers and his group of idiots.
