Sunday, April 24, 2011 Pass It On Education Tools: Most People Are Bad At Math---> They Are Convinced...But Need Not Be!Math teachers, parents, and educators of all stripes will likely benefit from reading the article below...and its follow-up, the article below that! The first begins by pointing out how unlikely it is to announce publicly that one is illiterate, yet how common it is for folks to self-proclaim themselves to be terrible at math! Why is this so? Is it a self-fulfilling prophecy for many young people? A cop-out? Way beyond addressing this phenomena, the first article introduces a free curriculum called Jump Math---used in England and Canada---that many are accessing now for free. You can too! It is getting a load of attention for its apparent effectiveness. In fact, so many folks responded to the first article that a second follow-up piece appeared a few days later. Both have very valuable information in them! Posted at 1:02 PM Keywords: Pass It On Education Tools , Math , Math Curriculum , Jump Math , Save Money 2 Comments |
