      (I get the joke but will now ignore it) Of related interest: The last round of "people get outraged at The New Math because they don't understand what's being taught" involved "subitizing" (which I hadn't heard of before) and the visual tools used to teach it to young children.

      I think the New Math is not remotely as terrible as the red tribe trads get worked up at most of the time, when I bother to understand it, it boils down to ... tricks that I invented / discovered myself that said, I remain unconvinced that (a) most kids are well server by it

          there's been many different things that have been "New Math" over time, presumably of different levels of desirability (Lehrer's "New Math" song is about the kind of math I learned in elementary school)

          Cartoon aside... I'm inclined to believe that even the less-than-the-smartest kids benefit from the foundational skills that elementary students are taught from the more modern curricula. I have no evidence (haven't looked, don't care to) but it fits very well with my priors.
