Wow, I just registered and I'm already going to get into some flame war. Great.
You. Are. Wrong. And you don't know what you're talking about. And you're extremely offensive about it, which is why I'm being so blunt. You should read up on the Dunning-Kruger effect before you type another word about math pedagogy.
Err...wow. We were criticizing Everyday Math, not you. People gave specific examples about what we don't like about EM. What's wrong with that, and how does it constitute flaming
you?
If you disagree, feel free to present evidence supporting your opinions, but please don't make baiting accusations or use name-calling/flaming (and please don't accuse people of doing what you're actually doing).
I've spent time teaching in the classroom, am regularly invited to review education grant applications at the federal level, and have been funded myself. I
do know what I'm talking about. They invite me back in part because of the kinds of criticisms I make.
