The MATHCOUNTS Foundation is a nonprofit dedicated to improving that statistic. MATHCOUNTS’ third annual “ Math Video Challenge” is a math competition for 6th to 8th graders that encourages student innovation as they create and star in their own math videos, thus exciting them to pursue higher education in math.<br /><br />As the webmaster of RealWorldMathCommunity, we are asking you to help support this effort by mentioning us in your next blog or forum post or promoting our logo with a link to the site. So far this contest has gathered over 500<br />submissions and millions of views on the videos. Our goal this year is this year is to do even better. With your help, we are confident we will reach this goal.<br /><br />For more information on MATHCOUNTS or the Math Video Challenge, visit our webpages at mathcounts.org and videochallenge.mathcounts.org/math-camera-action.<br /><br />Respectfully,MATHCOUNTShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11404358083528992923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071009582607488366.post-12044109918913094272012-04-22T23:24:28.627+10:002012-04-22T23:24:28.627+10:00Congratulations on celebrating your fourth anniver...Congratulations on celebrating your fourth anniversary!Jacqui Cyrushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513153494300198192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071009582607488366.post-36698425742194616722012-04-22T23:23:13.822+10:002012-04-22T23:23:13.822+10:00Hi:

Unfortunately when you let the math professors in charge of curriculum they can come up with some interesting, but inappropriate stuff for kids. I'm sure Morris would be pleased with your work!<br />-IhorIhor Charischakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311015215728634606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071009582607488366.post-69819126635680673642011-06-27T21:08:24.487+10:002011-06-27T21:08:24.487+10:00Hafa Adai Tom!

You're not alone, and nor ...Nice post, Thomas. You're not alone, and nor is this a problem specific to the US: there is a global groundswell of opinion in the same vein. We're all suffering from the actions of a generation (at least) of political thought which believes that it is possible to distil best practice into a series of simple and standardized 'How To' steps. That may be true in some jobs (although I question that too), but it certainly is not true for vocational callings like teaching. As you point out, the desire to identify bad teachers has led to the other 99% being subjected to a regime and a philosophy which undermines them and questions their expertise in the one area they are better-qualified to have an opinion than anyone else: a good teacher knows the whole student in a way that a single test performed on a single day can ever hope to portray. Yes, we need some tools for assessment, but the mania for standardized testing gives us useless information about the wrong things.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2071009582607488366.post-17998582934153156012011-02-10T19:09:47.538+10:002011-02-10T19:09:47.538+10:00What can I say...kudos to you and congratulations ...What can I say...kudos to you and congratulations for the 100K hits.
