[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because math specifically in the United States, along with engineering and computing, embraced a very bro kind of attitude focusing on natural aptitude and weeding out as many people as possible. It doesn't have to be that way. But of course all the videos in elementary school about "everyone is a math person" have the impact of making kids tired of the videos, not making them think that hard work in math is a good thing.[/quote] How can you believe both of those paragraphs at the same time?![/quote] Because the elementary school culture is not the same as what we grew up with (and what the teachers grew up with) or what happens at the higher academic levels.[/quote]
