By: MsMathTeacher. on 30 Nov 08, 00:29:44
As a parent and math teacher I have found Everyday Math to provide a strong program which helps students develop "number sense", meaning they do not simply memorize algorithms, but actually understand why the they work. This is critical for students to use what they know to solve new problems or situations. I feel very strongly that kids need to do a certain amount of basic memorization- multiplication tables, etc. I am often shocked at how much high school students rely on calculators.

By: xingfenzhen. on 25 Nov 08, 23:59:11
TERC method is actually very similar to mental math techniques taught in china. expect we had to answer them verbally in class and then prove our answers on the blackboard with the traditional method. Also I wish abacus is taught in schools here, since it really teaches to break complex calculations into simpler ones, and do it very quickly...

By: InfiniteAnvil. on 22 Nov 08, 16:38:18
It sounds like Everyday Math has a really good foundation in theory. I wish I'd had those extra zeroes; it explicates the theory while requiring minimum extra work. We learned the TERC method in my university (CS-hosted) Algorithms class as the "Russian method," and most in the class wished we had been taught that, instead of the arbitrary-seeming shortcut we learned in elementary school. Then again, in a class on algorithms, you're getting a lot of theory people and fewer practical people.

By: bunnykill100. on 22 Nov 08, 03:33:57
I loved this! I remember learning all these random methods, and constantly asking "but WHY?! I just want to know how to multiply them together!". I actually did rather poorly in math in elementary school because I didn't understand WHY I needed all of it. For math, you basically just need to know (for middle school): standard multiplication multiplication up to 12 x 12 long division fractions (+, -, /, *) decimals (how to turn them into reg. numbers) This shouldn't be that hard :S Thanks again!

By: Bellatrix22. on 22 Nov 08, 03:10:56
I learnt to use the standard algorithm and they taught us USING PLACE VALUES. It was more effiencent, easier to understand and we didn't waste "precious class time" drawing up boxes. I agree with wwleslie... there needs to be a balance with what they're teaching us. I've just finished year 11 Maths and I was disturbed at how many of my classmates haven't learnt long division in primary school. It make polynomial equations really hard for them. We "wasted" class time doing primary school work.

By: wwleslie. on 22 Nov 08, 02:00:34
In countries that perform well on international math tests (mostly in Asia and Europe), they do not teach junk computation methods (like clustering and lattice for multiplication); their texts are more rigorous than anything we have, though. The problem with traditional American math texts is that they didn't teach students how to think (too much drill); the problem with the new texts (like TERC and Everyday Math) is that they don't teach students how to compute. Why can't we have both?

By: rugaba. on 21 Nov 08, 04:07:05
I feel her pain, but unfortunately SHE IS DEAD WRONG. Math achievement has fallen significantly with respect to the rest of the world, and the countries who are dominating our kids are using methods similar to the TERC/Cluster. We must get on board with better math methods. Yes, it will be difficult at first, but more beneficial in the long run. She failed to demonstrate how much easier the TERC method is to use once you become proficient. Multi-digit multiplication becomes second nature.

Oh My God . . . the "cluster" method is so confusing and seems like an enormous waste fo time. I am shocked and horrified that they are actually teaching that as an introduction to learning multiplication. I can see offering this kind of prob. solution a year AFTER mastery of basic algorythums, perhaps to strengthen logic centers in the brain, but, as a method for basic math . . . NO WAY! What a scam.

By: SnapeHalfbloodPrince. on 19 Nov 08, 20:04:57
i see a mathematical pattern of decay in education in Holland, where I live. Teachers cannot even count 4*3 without a calculator, and there were even suggestions to teach a new way of maths: 3*3 is an estimate of 10 would be correct... I am glad that I have been properly taught mats and I think it is needed, even with the new techniques like calculators and so on. Why use a calculator when you can compute it yourselve?Also the Dutch languages are changed to be easier every 3 to 5 years, why?

Everyday Math is garbage. My two sons, who are very good at math, have come home with moronic homework such as "Find three things in your home that weigh about what you think this [picture of a book] weighs." My older son is now in seventh grade, and he came home one day last year, and said, "Hey Mom! I finally learned the right way to do multiplication! His SOCIAL STUDIES teacher taught him the basic algorithm.

By: ductapejewpirate. on 19 Nov 08, 03:41:13
As a future math teacher (the screen name is old...apologies for its classlessness) this really really irks me. I had heard rumors that they were teaching math like this. I cannot emphasize how much I believe calculators have become a crutch for our society! This is SO irksome! At the third presidential debate it was brought up by the moderators that we spend more per capita per student than any other country yet we're doing worse than a LOT of countries Maybe this should say something??

By: ElliotJohnNovak. on 19 Nov 08, 01:09:39
I was born in 1989 in Minnesota. I learned the "old way" of multiplication, but the same way of division that she showed. Only after I had learned the first way of multiplying did I ever encounter the other methods (lattice, etc). Props to Ms. McDermott for using her voice and education to speak about something she's passionate about.

By: EndCredulity. on 08 Jul 08, 22:45:46
vzteacher, asking to "give the program some time" is unconscionable as kids are being crippled while the "experiment" continues. Why we need to experiment when the rest of the world has found what works is beyond me. I guess the purpose is to employ those American academics who are paid to tinker and tamper. I have no doubt your students' scores are great in Everyday Math tests. At issue are the rest of the world's test scores. They are eating our kids for breakfast, while we play Experiment.

By: vzteacher. on 21 May 08, 12:53:59
As a teacher that is currently using Everyday Math, I ask that ypu please give the program some time. When my school first implemented EM, the first year was a challenge for all of us. It was quite different from any program that we had used before, therefore it took some time for all of us (teachers, students, & parents) to get used to it. Now, 7 years later, we LOVE it!! The kids "get" math more than they ever did before & our math scores prove it! Please be patient...it DOES get better!

By: danthemainman1. on 06 Apr 08, 22:29:47
The old test likely was based around the prior math curriculum. If I teach one method but give an examination based around a second method, then the person trained with the first method will do poorly on an examination based on the second method. That says nothing at all about the validity of the second method. I'd have to see additional evidence that cannot be attributed to a difference of methods to believe it. It may just be that UW's admission standards fell, too. Too many factors at hand.

By: cialis4you. on 23 Mar 08, 16:09:59
however, as I have replied else where: once we teach kids the logic and reasoning, teach them the most efficient way possible. What your saying suggests that math kids didn't know how to think before, and that this will teach kids how to think (thus making them more useful to society to quote you). However, given the number of technological advancements related to math over the years, I hardly see this as a problem.

By: marty177. on 16 Mar 08, 01:41:46
A report has just come out called 'The Final Report of the National Mathematics Advisory Panel', which was commissioned by the President to look at Math Ed in the US. The report said that it looked at 11 studies that said there was "limited or no impact" of calculators on improving conceptual development or problem solving abilities. It also said 10 of the 11 reports were over 20 years old. That means only 1 report has come out since 1987! We need more reseacrch before we know for sure!

Being able to understand, in a vague sense, arithmetic is useless if you can't consistently and efficiently do calculations... working with numbers is a requisite to studying more advanced subjects in mathematics, sciences, social sciences, and many other disciplines. You need to be able to dig a hole to build a foundation, which is needed to build a house.

By: noursa. on 05 Mar 08, 06:19:42
Reform Math focuses on understanding, traditional math is more about memorizing procedures. Int'l evaluations and college assessment tests are based on the traditional method: Focus on knowledge of procedures and formulas, not understanding, so no wonder scores are gonna decline. If I teach Joe how to dig a hole and teach Bill why we should dig a hole, then ask both to dig a hole, surely Joe will get a higher score. But that says nothing about who's better off and more useful to society today.

There are many aspects of Investigations that I admire and I do think that our new program includes enough opportunities for inquiry that the students won't lose that piece.
