[quote=Anonymous]This isn’t a “why is math so bad in the Us ?” question that I have seen a few times here recently. It’s why is math taught the the way it is here? I mean: why is it taught in separate topics in middle/high school, ending in some form of calculus? I went to school in another country where math each year is a mix of many different topics and the final/hardest math class will have a mix of advanced topics including calculus, statistics, etc. I think it is taught this way in many other places too. I am certainly not assuming that the way I was taught was better (and I never even took the highest level offered in my curriculum), but I am wondering what is the reason for the way it is taught in the US?
