[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This year, I spent one day on imaginary numbers notes in general level Alg 2. They came up again on the test review day for that unit since they were on that test but they were not a big part of the class. I’m not sure what you are thinking we are doing here, at least at the general level. [/quote]

I teach algebra 2 also.  It comes up over and over again throughout the curriculum.  Solving quadratics. Simplifying radicals. We are currently doing inverse functions of quadratics, so once again we have to talk about imaginary numbers.  It's a waste.  It mucks up the idea of what an inverse is because the kids are worried about restricting domains.[/quote]

These thoughts/ideas are so useful and helpful (both of you) and as a parent I wish they just asked some actual teachers what needs fixing![/quote]

They are asking.

[i]“ An important part of the Standards of Learning review process is the solicitation of comments from K-12 educators, faculty from institutions of higher education, the business community, professional education organizations, citizens, and parents. Please inform personnel in your school division and other stakeholders that they may review the current 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning and Mathematics Standards of Learning Curriculum Framework and provide comments, suggestions, and feedback by submitting the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning Public Comment Submission Feedback Form or by emailing comments directly to vdoe.mathematics@doe.virginia.gov. Comments will be received from January 28, 2022 to February 28, 2022.”

“ The VDOE is also seeking K-12 public school educators who are qualified and available to serve on a committee to review and revise the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning during the summer of 2022. Applicants must be teachers, principals, administrators, content specialists, or others who have expertise with the content areas and the standards. ”
