I think they r wasteing there money on those textbooks and workbooks.

That's what? math is about....all math is full of algorithms and symbols....Is like teaching a new language. Could anybody learn a new language without its grammar??!!! .I had the same experience in my life, went to get my graduate degree after 20 years and find my young classmates, amazing unprepared to learn, more math, trigonometry, calculus...

(I'm doing A level maths at the moment). In reality there may be more steps to finding the answer; but? each step goes extremely fast and so you end up with an answer faster (in my opinion).

Russian peasants use a halving-doubling and adding algorithm. all algorithms are based on distributive, associate and commutative properties. they should also teach students to critically compare the Russian/Egyptian, standard right-to-left, left-to-right and their own crappy algorithms and learn what is good and bad. having crappy teachers is another issue -- not a good excuse to criticise curriculum based on this.

It's just really not an important? skill, because we already have calculators that do that sort of Mathematics far more efficiently than humans ever could. What matters is to develop an understanding in order to keep moving into higher levels of mathematics, where there usually isn't a single algorithm to compute a particular type of problem (I'm currently a Maths undergraduate).

McDermott for exposing the fallacies of this new approach to arithmetic.All children are capable of memorizing basic arithmetic while in grammar school.Set your expectations high for them. Taking advantage of this stage(the parroting or grammar stage) of their growth reaps great rewards later on.If they don't learn basic skills early in education, they will have a difficult time later on solving more complex problems.

The clustering method allows the student, in time, to understand the algorithms commonly? used, but what's more, it teaches children about the distributive, associative and commutative properties of multiplication, without having to use such big words.

Honestly if some college people couldn't do 6 x 4 then they must be quite uneducated because I could do that in my sleep, no
offense to people.
Anyway thanks for listening! Hope you tilled the video anyway :D
