I think this whole math is racist concept was start by that Iron Man 1 actor who made his ridiculous schizo theories public and everyone made fun of him.

Americans are pretty unique in scoring well in reading and science tests but completely failing in maths.
Could any burgers explain this?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Literacy is recognized as pretty important for literally anyone in modern society, but there's also a massive population of burgers that have zero aspiration to do anything more intellectually challenging than working a deep fryer. I know that sounds ridiculous to a non-burger but I literally heard People of Kangz say "this is pointless, I'm never gonna use this" starting in fourth grade math with basic plotting and introductory algebra.
I think the top half of burger society is absolutely competitive with any other nation, perhaps even the best in the world. The lower half is made up of the laziest bums you can imagine. They just don't have any desire to learn anything at all. And to be fair, for their lifestyle, they really don't need to know anything beyond basic arithmetic. That's how high their plans for life go.

Itβs not that they donβt aspire to be better, itβs that they arenβt taught how higher math will be useful to them beyond college. If their parents arenβt college educated and the school isnβt explaining how algebra will help them earn a 6 figure salary then it just seems like algebra is only useful to get to the next level of math. Same thing happened to me. Blue collar parents and apathetic math teachers. Had no idea the real importance of math until military and college.

It's probably for the best tbh. The goal of these programs is to integrate potential meth-head gangbangers back into society. Right now, if you fail school, no sane business is going to hire you - and if you are more engaged in your "neighbourhood culture" than in math, you are going to fail school. This is bad for the state, as it creates a culture that is thoroughly economically and politically detached from the rest of the nation. But if you lower the bar enough, those people can get their school slip and potentially get hired - and as you said, they probably don't need to know anything beyond basic arithmetic anyway
The price of this is reduced social mobility for the middle class, but frick the middle class unironically

So what, exactly, are they suggesting to make it more βinclusiveβ? Iβm trying to find concrete examples out of morbid curiosity.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
If I had to guess, there's less equation solving and pure number exercises, and more word based thought exercises with more than one correct answer. Also no grades.

So actual problem solving, which I would tend to assert is more difficult than solving non-representative problems. Solving an integral is one thing. Setting one up based on the observed parameters of a real world problem is quite another.
Thatβs racist.

The only thing that's racist is thinking blacks are naturally resistant to math and have to be tricked into learning it and then not grading them to find out if they did. I'm sorry, I mean making math more inclusive.

how old is grade 12 there? looks like rather practical math to me, what's the normal math that's taught at that level?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Grade 12 = matric = the last year before tertiary/university education. (17 or 18 years old!)
It is practical stuff, but the level is VERY stupid. Like, this is an actual an exam question: Convert 520cm to meters. I shit you not, it's on page 153.
edit: on the same page, marks for converting 1 and a quarter to a fricking decimal. This is fricking atrocious and unironically makes me angry. It is possibly the same or worse standard as the Bantu Education provided by the Nats.

It's fine to teach people this shit who aren't going to college. Make sure they can read, write, and do numbers well enough to function in society and send them off. Unfortunately out elites can't admit that college isn't for everyone.

Ja, nee, I get it, some people cannot into math no matter how hard they try. Some people know they are going to study English or Art at uni too and it won't matter even if they can math, but still the standard of testing is just utterly pathetic, even using maths "practically" instead of trying to prove theorems and talk about metric spaces and that book learnin'.

Black people canβt do math. This is not a racist statement. This is literally my just saying exactly what that white Stanford foid said. Jo Boaler is very progressive and she believes that black people cannot do math. If you disagree, you are a racist. So I do not disagree because I am not a racist.
Black people are not capable of doing math like white and Asian people are. This is a completely true and very woke statement. It is completely okay for me to say and imply this because it would be racist if I did not. Katherine Johnson was white. Benjamin Banneker was white. David Blackwell was white. If you disagree, you are a racist.
