"Why is it not a good thing to be able to read a question that an educated person has written, and give the answer they are looking for? "
Because learning skills get in the way of indoctrination. God knows we would not want to have children with skills to think for themselves. |

""They need to stop letting them use calculators.......They teach how to use the calculator more than working the problem out in their own head."

It doesn't seem possible but every time I look into these fora I am more and more repulsed and disgusted by the attitudes of the rabid radicals here.
It's sad and wholly un American in every conceivable way. Mark Carmen-you are a depraved, illiterate and sad piece of shit that has been polluted by your occupation and I pity you. Go see your union rep, you need serious psychological counseling. Tell them you suspect that you are a sociopath.... |

"They need to stop letting them use calculators.......They teach how to use the calculator more than working the problem out in their own head."
I was out of HS before NCLB was implemented, but calculators are nothing new. We weren't using them for basic math, algebra, or geometry, but we were using the scientific notation functions they had available.....which most students will never use once they step outside of the classroom. Besides, if you take calculators out of schools you are robbing America's youth of their right to figure out that 55378008 on a calculator spells BOOBLESS if you turn it upside down. T |

" But teaching to a test does very little for the student as far as learning goes. It's teaching kids how to take a test. Great. What an awesome life skill to have. "
It is an awesome skill to have. What's the alternative? Again, it's the test that may need tweaking, there is nothing wrong with teaching the kids the material that is going to be on the test. |
