Okay but math has many subjects. They do all in one and call it math lmao

@Montana 2025

Reading and composition needs a major rehaul. I sucked ass because I was forced to do shitty vague writing prompts for tests that accounted for 25% of my grade

Reading right now has a MAJOR problem in that we are teaching students with failed 1950's era reading techniques which while good for interventions and leeting slow students keep pace, cucks them out of learning fully.

Mathematics is many subjects, yes, but the biggest issue is that we have ineffective mathematics teachers

Like right now the reading technique they are using is RETARDED

They don't even teach PHONICS anymore in many places

FIRST OF ALL, we need to get rid of WOMEN ADMINS AND TEACHERS

I took a bunch of history and as an adult it has done nothing for me

They do it pure pavlovian style

"SEE DICK RUN"

"RUN DICK RUN"

is back in vogue

There is arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, real analysis, complex analysis, topology, number theory, etc.

english, math, sciences all of them massive benefits

There is no just “general math”

history... not so much

@Montana 2025

my math was basic skills up to 6th grade, then in middle school it became algebra 1 (7th Grade), algebra 2 (8th Grade), and then in high school it was geometry (freshman), precalculus (sophomore), and then math became an elective where you could take AP Calculus, AP Statistics, or Discrete Math

i didn't have generalized math

@DataVoid what you need brother

And we are generally teaching arithmetic, basic geometry, algebra, and some number theory in the lower levels divided by grade.

history and geography were the only subjects i enjoyed and the reason i didn't drop out of highschool to work

you didn't take trig sev?

Wtf is precalculus lmaooo

That just sounds dumb af

They are just called "MATH" "SCIENCE" ENGLISH" because parents are dumb

trig was P A I N

Precalculus is just trigonometry

trigonometry was blended into my geometry and algebra 2 courses

and some extra topics.

trig was my fav math

that to

o

@Montana 2025 just memeing a little but the point is that this debate was honestly embarrassing

trig is fun

we had the basketball coach teach our trig class

@DataVoid I agree

he was learning it alongside us <:atlast:758774926869004348>

I have the luxury of getting to teach trig via mech engineering to my students to let them skip precal.

Statistics is the most useful math right now

applied trig is amazing
