Thanks for that Youtube link. What a horror. Did we learn nothing from the New Match debacle? Is there something wrong with teaching the simplest, most direct way of problem solving? Is that what PoMo math looks like? The incredible thing is that test scores haven't gone through the floor. At best, we're creating a generation of math-phobes.
