[quote=Anonymous][quote]I think only memorizing formulas is a terrible way of teaching. I can do integrals still, but I can't tell you why it's done the way it is because the teachers never emphasized the "whys" only the "hows". That really doesn't help a person understand math and how to apply it to real world concepts. [/quote] Were you not taught why it was done or were you not interested enough to listen to your teacher? Do you need to know this now? Would learning the why of something you are more interested in be a better way to develop your analytical skills? Do you feel that you are lacking in analytical skills or are you wishing that you had gone into a math field as a career?[/quote]
