[quote=Anonymous]Well, I don't think pre 2.0 math was all that great, either. American kids still did terribly on the PISA test pre CC standards. At least with CC standards, the kids are required to think more. Not saying 2.0 curriculum is 100% great, but I don't think we should rah rah over what we've been doing in the past. http://educationbythenumbers.org/content/top-us-students-fare-poorly-international-pisa-test-scores-shanghai-tops-world-finland-slips_693/ "* Stagnation. U.S. scores on PISA exams haven’t improved over the past decade. See here. That’s a bit of a contrast from the NAEP exam where American students have been showing modest improvement. I[b] believe the NAEP exam plays to U.S. strengths of simple equation solving. It has fewer word problems where students have to apply their knowledge to a new circumstance and write their own equations and models.[/b]"[/quote]
