[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is all so crazy to me. I work to help R&D companies bring talented STEM candidates into their operations. They have a hard time finding qualified candidates many times (very specific biotech fields). US students are already struggling to compete so WHY do this? Crushed to see that VA is implementing the Cliff's Notes version of math in our public schools. [/quote] AP calculus & IB are cliffs notes? [/quote] Not giving proper attention and coverage of foundational materials is Cliff's Notes. Cutting and pasting Algebra/Geometry topics into random formats is Cliff's Notes. Rushing kids through years 7-10 of single level, hodge-podge math is Cliff's Notes, and poor planning. It is not preparing kids for AP Calculus. [/quote] The whole point is to not rush through. You are speculating. [/quote]
