Math is important to know else you might get ripoed off on your next crack buy.
Why don’t they stop teaching math? It’s racist to teach any subject except CRT.
It does make sense, with some of my math classes I brought in extra topics to make it interesting to those students who were interested but, it is not true that singing and team problem solving are always going to inspire students who don’t “get it”.
The most important function of a teacher is to discover why a student does not understand a subject, and find a way to make that student make sense of the issue to their own understanding.
I am talking about kids in high school who are struggling with some very basic math concepts, they would not respond well to my introducing a lesson with a song. Would they?
Recall the teacher who suggested a trig pnumonic which sounded like an Indian chant and was repremanded for appropriation of another’s culture (SOHCAHTOA; Sine Opposite over Hypotenuse, Cosine Adjacent over Hypotenuse, Tangent Opposite over adjacent)
If you want a not so radical solution here is one that works. It certainly not radical compared to all the bull crap that they try now and waste taxpayer dollars on. The solution is to forbid them educations. Take it all away and stop wasting money.
If you look at some of the most educationally motivated cultures in the world, they have once been denied the right to be educated. There was a time in our nation when freed men did everything in their power to get educated. They started their own school and colleges, just because they were once denied as slaves to learn. They lost that somehow as families were no longer important.
Deny them educations and they will eventually find a way to teach themselves. Defund government schools. It will create a Renaissance in education. It would be a blessing to whites as well.
Life applications in learning math will be more useful to the majority of students who will never, ever have to figure out how fast a bathtub with a hole will fill up or when two trains will pass the same point from different distances and at different rates of speed.
Ultimately, there can be only one … correct answer.
This is all utter bullshit, but this charlatan will milk a career from it. America's bloated leftist bureaucracies create their own religious dogma (in other words, LIES) which they believe, and they expect you to believe.
not new trans math!!
I don’t mind different methods to get students engaged with doing mathematics provided they are taught that there is indeed a right answer and getting to that is important.
Math takes a discipline to follow the rules. Those without discipline will fail to use math as the great tool it is meant to be.
No, but the left is.
1 + 1 = RACIST HONKEY BASTARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
meanwhile, the vast majority of blacks (98%) have an IQ under 130
Math ain't hard.
And a few of those team members will end up carrying the other members. Maybe that will be the most important lesson.
Education, generally, is biased in favor of the educable. If they were truly dedicated to “equity”, they would get rid of public schools, altogether.
If Yahoo posted this, they’re too stupid to add and subtract, so they’re against teaching math.
the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard. anyone who even ponders such a thing is doing it for only one reason and one reason only. And that is so blacks dont have to work as hard to appear equal.
Blacks use mathematics all the time and dont even know it!?? I mean doesnt math come into play when they put a certain fraction of crack into that little zip lock baggies??
I was under the impression that the idea that a good education is racist is a very new — in the last couple of years — concept. We were watching reruns of a show from the late ‘90s and someone said that SAT tests are racist. Apparently, this has been brewing for quite some time.
Of course, general dumbing down has been a goal of liberals for decades, so I guess testing goes along with that.
Actually the real IDIOTS here are the conservatives who STILL send their kids to government schools...thinking that their particular schools are unaffected by the rot that infects all levels of education. I get it with Leftists, the schools are just what they demand - but to see conservatives put their vaunted ‘lifestyle’ over the education of their kids sickens me. My kids did fine bunking in a small house and not going to Disneyland (and thereby not having to go public schools in exchange)...and I suspect other kids would be fine too.
