[quote=Anonymous]I think a problem is that people who are in math education who write these standards and curricula and tests are more focused on, and perhaps were more successful at learning, education-related concepts than math, and also haven't pursued higher math, and so don't know where math education can ultimately lead. So they are focused on teaching within the closed system of math education K-12 rather than knowing how to prepare students for college-level and higher math and what the goals and priorities should be. One priority should be to learn the universal language of real math, and another should be to know how to apply simple rules of math, like orders of operations, correctly. [/quote]
