and now for something completely different

I've just read Alan Greenspan's chapter on equality and education.

Will post excerpts later on.

Preview: he thinks constructivist math was a big mistake.

Unfortunately, he also thinks constructivist math has left the scene now that the Focal Points have been published.

    Catherine,

    at 180 comments and growing, seems like a live chat room might be in order ;-)

    But then I'd never get any work done.

    I'm ready for some new math posts.

    oh gosh, you and me both

    otoh, the 180 thread has gotten so exhausting I actually edited 10 pages of my chapter this morning.

    see?

    everything bad is good
