White House Suggests Model Used in Reading to Elevate Math Skills
Cavanagh, Sean
Education Week, v25 n23 p1, 16-17 Feb 2006
This article discusses the Bush administration's aim to improve mathematics education through a suggested reading model. The White House is focusing on research to shape how students across the country are taught the most basic mathematical concepts. This undertaking would be modeled on the government's action toward reading, which includes the Reading First program. Many teachers have long argued over what approaches in math work best. Here, the author presents what other math experts have to say regarding this endeavor.
