100% agreed. the purpose of Everyday Math is another way to dumb down our children!

'applied' math solution: A. The store's closer to your home :0 It's not practical to save a penny.

vzteacher, asking to "give the program some time" is unconscionable as kids are being crippled while the "experiment" continues. Why we need to experiment when the rest of the world has found what works is beyond me. I guess the purpose is to employ those American academics who are paid to tinker and tamper. I have no doubt your students' scores are great in Everyday Math tests. At issue are the rest of the world's test scores. They are eating our kids for breakfast, while we play Experiment.

The store selling the shirt for $26.99 is cheaper by one cent.

hey you are shopping and find the same shirt at two different stores. One store is selling the shirt $26.99 and the other store is selling the shirt for 10% off the original price of $30. Which is the better buy?

As a teacher that is currently using Everyday Math, I ask that ypu please give the program some time. When my school first implemented EM, the first year was a challenge for all of us. It was quite different from any program that we had used before, therefore it took some time for all of us (teachers, students, & parents) to get used to it. Now, 7 years later, we LOVE it!! The kids "get" math more than they ever did before & our math scores prove it! Please be patient...it DOES get better!

The old test likely was based around the prior math curriculum. If I teach one method but give an examination based around a second method, then the person trained with the first method will do poorly on an examination based on the second method. That says nothing at all about the validity of the second method. I'd have to see additional evidence that cannot be attributed to a difference of methods to believe it. It may just be that UW's admission standards fell, too. Too many factors at hand.

however, as I have replied else where: once we teach kids the logic and reasoning, teach them the most efficient way possible. What your saying suggests that math kids didn't know how to think before, and that this will teach kids how to think (thus making them more useful to society to quote you). However, given the number of technological advancements related to math over the years, I hardly see this as a problem.

A report has just come out called 'The Final Report of the National Mathematics Advisory Panel', which was commissioned by the President to look at Math Ed in the US. The report said that it looked at 11 studies that said there was "limited or no impact" of calculators on improving conceptual development or problem solving abilities. It also said 10 of the 11 reports were over 20 years old. That means only 1 report has come out since 1987! We need more reseacrch before we know for sure!
