[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] The sniff test: the children who excel in math in high school and college are not the children who got this motivation, drive, and foundation from math teachers in elementary school ...certainly not in our County and Age. The prime drivers were not elementary school teachers but likely well-trained and educated parents in quantitative studies. This is the true litmus test. This is the unfortunate but certain truth. Very few children will ascribe their math abilities, achievement and performance to what they are taught in elementary school to today. Those pupils are in the minority. Just ask the students.[/quote] Professional mathematician here. My parents did no homework with me and weren't very good at math, from what they tell me. I completely attribute my love of, and ability in, math to my teachers. No doubt about it. I think my parents would have put me off the subject if they'd hovered over me while I was learning it.[/quote]
