[quote=Anonymous]Having taught math in 3 different countries, I wouldn't dismiss a poor curriculum as the cause. Many western countries struggle with the same issues as the US in that kids tend to perceive math as uncool and don't choose it. But those other countries are scoring better than the US on international tests. A bad curriculum can make teachers lose their confidence and can have long lasting consequences on students and potential teachers. From what I remember, it wasn't always like this for math in the US.[/quote]
