I have a BS with a Math Major, that degree paid for itself many times over. Usually about twice a month I get contact from companies wanting me to apply, and that BS in Math is a primary reason.

The Chinese students must be steeped in “white supremacy” because they excel while American students fail.

The Communists are apparently designing the curriculum.

STEM is hard, especially engineering, physics and math. You can’t pretend hard things are easy and expect the graduates to be competent.

What you will likely end up with is a lot of people with worthless degrees because they won’t be able to atualy do the job.

“and applies social justice principles to math lessons.“

India and China laugh at us again.
And India and China train the computer programmers and doctors that we MAKE THE CHOICE not to train here in the US.
And send them here to work .
And the US kids that took “social justice math”; deliver Door Dash food to those Indian trained professionals.

This is so infuriating , and preventable .

The dumbing down of America continues. Meanwhile China continues to churn out engineers and India does programmers and doctors.

“Change is hard and scary”
Try “asinine and destructive.”
Nothing more insulting than being patronized by an imbecile.

Anybody remember the ‘Inner city math quiz’ gag that went around about 25-30 years ago?

If Johnny (who is White) has 3 apples, and Ricky (who is Black) has only 2 apples, how many apples do they have all together.

Correct Answer: Johnny is a RACIST!

Social justice applied to ... Mathematics. Mathematics is NATURE- something these morons seem to not understand. It is NATURAL LAW. And it is PROVEN. It has no racial or “cultural” basis for the FACTS. The facts exist and are uncontested.

This is sheer lunacy. Unless the goal is to create millions of Winston Smiths (1984 Orwell) all conditioned and forced into the FALSEhood of 2 +2= 5. FIVE is the politically correct and completely FALSE answer the State insists on. New Math.

in recent years California has plummeted to the bottom of states ranking in public education. That’s right, worse than the proverbial Mississippi, west Virginia, or whatever other state the elitist einsteins choose to stigmatize. This math fiasco is part of the reason why.

This particular update has attracted extra attention, and controversy, because of perceived changes it makes to how “gifted” students progress — and because it pushes Algebra 1 back to 9th grade, de-emphasizes calculus, and applies social justice principles to math lessons.

The Asians and Indians in California are going to hate this.

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.
