[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What my son doesn't like in the higher level math is first that being done on a screen is different than using a paper and pencil. And second having to show each individual step in mathspace's opinion of how to do a problem, doesn't always leave room in higher level math for individual approaches. This is the bigger problem to me. It sometimes didn't even align with the steps his teacher taught them. [/quote] He does not have to show each individual step. He can solve the problem on scratch paper and then just input the answer.[/quote] That was not true for algebra 1. I even watched him do it because he was so frustrated and he absolutely had to show every step. Maybe it’s a teacher setting? [/quote] I am a teacher in FCPS. You do not have to enter in each individual step to solve a problem. For example, if the problem is 4x + 3 = 5(x - 2), he can solve it on paper or in his head and enter x = 13 into the box.[/quote]
