[quote=Anonymous]The ability to learn concepts in math and apply them to solving math problems really should be acknowledged as the ability to use critical thinking and analytical skills. Those skills are valuable for many careers, not just STEM. The problem with the K12 educational systems extends way beyond whether or not kids are learning math before college. The fact that Harvard and other universities are not using tools that assess critical thinking for admissions is the bigger issue. Or perhaps they have to put butts in seats and the pickings are slim. This stuff is the tip of the iceberg- don’t fool yourselves the US is in big trouble. I fear for my grandchildren and future generations beyond that. [/quote]
