[quote=Anonymous]How bad uneducated homeschool parents are is easily seen in Liping Ma's research, where only nine out of twenty-three chosen for their interest in math were able to solve 1¾ ÷ ½. A further two didn't reduce to lowest form, leaving twelve unable to do the problem. To add insult to injury, only one of the twenty-three were able to produce a story problem that would match the calculation, which should show how terrible those homeschooling parents are. Except it doesn't. Ma didn't interview homeschooling parents. She interviewed US elementary school math teachers, a majority of whom could not handle a simple division-by-fractions problem. [/quote]
