[quote=Anonymous][quote=pettifogger][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] I went to a top school in the US and nobody in my class was familiar with mathematical proofs, like, they literally never did it.[/quote] How is that possible? I recall doing them sophmore year of high school.[/quote] Weird. Back in the day, we were doing formal proofs starting in either Algebra I or Geometry. Proofs were a pretty standard part of math instruction. If proofs are no longer being taught in high school math classes, then that's a great example of how modern high school math has been slowed down and watered down. [/quote] Proofs are not taught anymore in K-12, other than what passes for a proof in geometry class (i.e the "2 column proof" which is a huge crutch that mainly hinders student's development).[/quote] How is that possible?!
