Im 2001 so
which is funny that 1995 which would be a lot of college graduates
I am part of the first generation of millenials.
Right after baby boomers.... who basically started to see the rise of technology.
a lot of college textbooks say 2000
just because the textbook shouldnt be older than the student doesnt mean its less right
I read textbooks from the 1800s so... ya
. . . majority of my textbooks are brand new
got some books that date as far back as the late 1700s actually
a literature textbook is going to change in years, a math book is going to change, but a history book should be always right
In all honesty, textbooks from back in the 1700's, 1800's, and 1900's is pretty damn interesting.
To see how people were taught back then.
math will pretty much always be right, fuck common core btw
To see how they thought life was back then.
Gives me a glimpse into the past.
i cringe when i see a harvard stamp, but then i realize that 1916 was very differnt
ya
old books are cool
I wanna get rid of common core
@Dusty Morgan literally no different then it was in the 80s and 90s... strange isn't it? even math books from 1788 are no different then was I was taught in 1990
idk with the math buddy. A lot of students are taught to solve problems left to right instead of PEMDAS
Yeah... got to remember. The world is completely different a 100 years ago.
Ask any 100+ year old.
They see the world change so much, that they really don't feel apart of the world.
@Misomania Math is something that is so useful, it hasn't be changed in a long time.
i really enjoy this show
@Misomania In a effort to change, they pushed the common core that doesn't really make sense.
they show the formula, they explain what it does, they give a few examples and then ask you to complete a few basic examples yourself. Literally has not changed
@Misomania I think scientists should be in charge of what changes or doesn't changes in our text books.
Not politicians or political figures.
paranoia, trying to connect with yourself, and being able to do whatever you want
what is funny is that I have an old history test from 1830 something (can't remember the exact year) from someone in elementary school. It was about the founding fathers.... and she failed the test, lol. Got like a 34 percent
also sounds like bill murray
They don't even teach about our founding father's anymore.
If they do teach, it is more of them basing the founding fathers.
The left are trying to turn people's opinions of the founding fathers.
was in the textbook I got from a estate auction of a old amish farm. Gave it to a musuem
Thus in sense, they will start hating the constitution.
well hamilton, the musical seems to point out his interests against slaves and how he was an immigrant
