We Do Math Wrong

Amazing video re-linked from Darren Kuropatwa's blog.



I have argued in the last year, far less eloquently, that geometry does not deserve its status as a full-year class. Honestly, I think it should be about 3 units in each of Algebra I and II. I have a lot of noodling to do to come up with a reasonable justification for that, though. And I'll probably hold that justification until after I've taught geometry (exclusively) this coming year.
