[quote=Anonymous]OP math is key. It is a foundation on which you can understand the world (what does 50% chance of rain mean? What does a poll with an error rate of plus or minus 3 percent mean? How much will a mortgage rate decrease of 1 Percent save me? How many sales do I need to make next quarter? Did the drug I was testing to save the lives of cancer patients work? How can I actually make enough of the drug to get it to all the patients that need it?) Teachers are "obsessed" with math. Ignorance is shameful. Sounds like you need to get over your anger and get to work. There are great resources online for you. Try the Khan academy. Help your kids to live in the 21st century. [/quote]
