CA next state to teach "Equitable Math" because 2+2=4 is white supremacy

Actually, UBI involves a Lorentz factor which takes us out of classical Newtonian Marxism and into Marxism at relativistic velocities.

Thus, UBI = ( γ - 1)m[SUB]0[/SUB]c[SUP]2[/SUP]

LOL

Great video, but the teacher should have said her final pay was

2000 + 2000 = 20,002,000

Next: No one will be taught algebra until ALL students have mastered* fractions.
After that: no one will be taught fractions until ALL students have mastered the multiplication table.
After that: no one will be taught the multiplication table until ALL students have mastered addition and subtraction.
After that: no one will be taught addition and subtraction until ALL students have mastered counting.

After that: forget it. The US has become a technological third-world country, all in the name of "equity".

* Of course, "mastered" is a racist word and must be eliminated. See, e.g., https://www.insider.com/groups-removed-the-word-master-2020-6

Interesting thing I learned in an eduction program I help with, is that all students who have a problem with math, never learned to subtract correctly. Every student (black, white, green or blue) who learned to actually subtract, became quite good in math. Crazy, eh?

Do they still teach how to check your subtraction by adding the difference to the subtrahend and seeing if it equals the minuend? (After more decades than I care to recall, I still remember those terms.)

Teaching to the lowest common denominator -- i.e., students who probably wouldn't know what a lowest common denominator is.

Don't worry. The people who actually design bridges and electronics and other things that require the "right" answer will actually know how to do math. Heck, they'll probably all be party members in a few years time. But the prole judging whether to vote for the politician who promises to cut back government spending or the one who promises to pay for everything they'll ever need again won't be burdened with such petty contrivances as "two and two equals four."

This just convinces me more and more that I will never send my kids to public school.

The manual enumerates signs of “white supremacy culture in the mathematics classroom,” which include a focus on “getting the right answer,” an emphasis on “real-world math,” teaching math in a “linear fashion,” students being required to “show their work,” and grading students based on their demonstrated knowledge of the material.

Gee, I can't wait to demonstrate how antiracist I am by driving over bridges and flying in airplanes designed by the students of "equitable mathematics" ...

How about you?

See the thread on Critical Education Theory for more on Paulo Freire's massively unfortunate (and unfortunately massive) influence on education.

So ... would you rather drive over a bridge (or fly on a plane) designed by a "binary system of right answers" or by a "huermenuetics [sic] of disciplinary engagement"? (And the word is "hermeneutics", not "huermenuetics". Or perhaps I'm being too "binary" ...)

By the way, this Jeet Heer clown is the same jackass who just wrote a hit piece on the LP Mises Caucus for The Nation.

Everybody knows you can't f-- with engineers. We write the software for the brakes in your car. You think Chinese hacker zero-day exploits or killdozers are bad? Try pissing off your engineers and see what happens. We are the exploit.

Imagine a student who is already poor at math being "taught" by someone like this jackass.



Then imagine a student who could have been good at math being "taught" by someone like this jackass.
