We all know confidently incorrect people. People displaying dunning-kruger. The majority of those people have low education and without someone giving them objectively true feedback on their opinions through their developmental years, they start to believe everything they think is true even without evidence.
Memorizing facts, dates, and formulas aren’t what necessarily makes someone intelligent. It’s the ability to second guess yourself and have an appropriate amount of confidence relative to your knowledge that is a sign of intelligence.
I could be wrong though.
there’s more of the country than florida
And there’s more of the country falling behind the rest of the world in Maths than just Florida. It was all over the news, again, just a few weeks ago.
i have an idea, look up credentialing standards before you comment on them
says person who clearly didn’t. You know they’ve changed them recently, right?
credentialing standards are set state by state. you know that, right?
Yep. And you know Florida isn’t the only state falling behind in Maths, right? Now go look and see how many states no longer require Maths teachers to have qualifications in Maths and you’ll see why
can tell you are neither in nor familiar with the current issues in education. every educator and anyone who’s had to get a degree in the last 20 years can tell you we’re seeing a bunch of bullshit that’s the legacy of remote learning. a generation lost a year of education.
Says person quoting an excuse given several years ago, and clearly hasn’t looked up who he’s talking to (spoiler alert: a Maths teacher)
That was the excuse given several years ago. Latest figures (a few weeks ago, as I already said) show the U.S. has fallen even further behind the rest of the world post return to school, so the issue was never remote learning to begin with.
please, pretend you have credentials none of us believe. you were earlier proudly and strongly asserting you could teach math anywhere in the US without any sort of math cert. show me your source on that before you keep running your mouth on shit you know nothing about. remind me, how long ago was the pandemic and when will the last of those children graduate? you “taught math” you should be able to do arithmetic
