My nephew graduated this year. He doesn’t know how to use long division and tried to reach for a calculator every time my other nephew, an engineering student tried to show him how to use long division.
My brother and his wife and I were beating my first mentioned nephew at solving the problems present.
CC students can’t do math without drawing pictures. Crazy. Many American school children have never had to memorize the multiplication tables. This is not the education that got us to the moon.
I have freshmen college students that cannot divide a whole number by 10 unless they use a calculator.
