Lo these many years later, the council has admitted, more or less, that it goofed. In a report released Tuesday, the council, confronting "inconsistency in the grade placement of mathematics topics as well as in how they are defined and what students are expected to learn," laid down a new law restoring "old school" values. The multiplication table... is to be drilled into kids' heads again.
In 2006, the NCTM released “Curriculum Focal Points,” a report urging that math teaching in kindergarten through eighth grade focus on a few basic skills, largely reversing the controversial stand taken in the landmark 1989 standards document which launched the math wars of the 1990s and 2000s.[1] Francis Fennell, president of the council played down the degree of change the new report...
The Adventures of Jasper Woodbury consists of 12 videodisc-based adventures (plus video based analogs, extensions and teaching tips) that focus on mathematical problem finding and problem solving. Each adventure is designed from the perspective of the standards recommended by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). In particular, each adventure provides multiple opportunities for problem solving, reasoning, communication and making connections to other areas such as science, social studies, literature and history (NCTM, 1989; 1991).
