[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think no textbooks is a reason why American students are failing in Math. Because if they have a bad teacher, there is no way they can review it themselves or have parents explain. [/quote] But lots of American students do have math textbooks. What's your explanation for them? Or are the ones with textbooks not failing?[/quote] One of the most notorious math curriculum, Everyday Math, is famous for without text book and use nonstandard techniques. If the student did not understand in class, the parents simply cannot help. I do believe having a good math textbooks produces better results. It also promotes better study habit. Students will learn that reviewing the book is part of the study process if they forget something. Instead, we have the math curriculum itself spiraling back and forth and serves no one well.
