My pet theory is that math is not taught well because teachers for the 6-12 group just aren't good at math. They may be good at pedagogy but may lack the deep understanding that may be needed to teach more effectively.
Now can society can divert a bigger proportion of the few people that somehow got it to teach kids?
- Fliko 15y agoSome teachers don't even try, my Grade 11 Principles of Math teacher just took us on field trips to the park every day instead of teaching because she didn't have enough balls to say no to the kids who asked if we could go to the park. It made my Grade 12 year and first college math class a bit difficult at some points.
