You're embarking on one of the most "seditious" acts a parent can perform...putting your child above society. God bless you.
Cultivating the next generation of homeless.
From the Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction and quoted in the article: “The child of immigrants might have learned a different way to solve a problem because that’s how their parents were taught where they grew up. If we just tell that student their way is the wrong way, we risk turning them off to math for life. If we take the opportunity to explore why there are different ways to approach the same problem, it can be a learning moment for the entire class.”
I teach a series of supervisory development courses for a local manufacturer that starts off with a math course that covers the 4 basic math operations as applied to fractions and decimals. The adult students are a mix of US-born and foreign-born that includes Mexico, Central/South America, and SE Asia. I regularly see the foreign-born students using a different process to solve the in-class exercises. I teach the standard American math approach and I’m only fluent in English. I do see it as a learning opportunity for me as an instructor to have the student explain their process and notation. I still only teach the standard processes and expect the correct answer, no matter how they derive that answer.
He probably failed calculus
He has sure failed as an American!
Gates would never have made his billions if he practiced what he preaches. He is clearly absorbed with “race”. There must be a term for such a person who holds that philosophy ...
A rational metaphysics recognizes the principles of objectivity: the primacy of existence and that the metaphysically given is absolute.
Ok, I guess they are less obvious now regarding common core goals...
This helps explain why Windows has so many problems, even decades later.
“spare me the Navier-Stokes…”
But how else do we make them experts in gender fluidity?
buh dum dumpf!
:)
“But 2 + 2 is 4 not 5. You are so right!”
Oh, OK. Now you’re exhibiting white privilege!
Many math problems can be solved in different ways.
And sometimes word problems are unclear or written poorly.
But, none of that has anything to do with “race.”
These leftist “anti-racists” sound pretty racist when they say it does.
These lunatic idiocies on our part is what embolden Russia and China to do what they want.
Countries who are this detached from reality are not to be feared.
If math is a tool of white supremacy, why are the Asians kicking our butts in math? Oh that’s right, according to the recalled San Fransicko school board, Asians are white supremacists too.
One side is white people who think Math problems have exact answers, and the other side is everyone else.
Don't forget the Asian people. According to the now-recalled San Fran school board they're white supremacists too for valuing education, opposing affirmative action, and questioning why the school board cares more about renaming schools than reopening them.
There may be different ways of solving problems, but there is still only one correct answer.
How many software guys does it take to change a light bulb? Can't be done! Hardware problem!
Only Republican Asians can stay.
