Fifty Years of Math in the USA 1957 - 2007

Last week I purchased a burger at Burger King for
$1.58. The countergirl took my $2 and I was digging
for my change when I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and
gave it to her. She stood there, holding the nickel
and 3 pennies, while looking at the screen on her
register. I sensed her discomfort and tried to tell
her to just give me two quarters, but she hailed the
manager for help. While he tried to explain the
transaction to her, she stood there and cried.

Why do I tell you this?

Because of the evolution in teaching math since the
1950s. As an example, a simple arithmetic problem to
be solved:

1. Teaching Math In 1950s
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His
cost of production is 4/5 of the price. What is his
profit ?

2. Teaching Math In 1960s
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100 His cost
of production is 4/5 of the price, or $80. What is his
profit?

3. Teaching Math In 1970s
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His
cost of production is $80. Did he make a profit?

4. Teaching Math In 1980s
A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His
cost of production is $80 and his profit is $20. Your
assignment: Underline the number 20.

5. Teaching Math In 1990s
A logger cuts down a beautiful forest because he is
selfish and inconsiderate and cares nothing for the
habitat of animals or the preservation of our
woodlands. He does this so he can make a profit of
$20. What do you think of this way of making a living?
Topic for class participation after answering the
question: How did the birds and squirrels feel as the
logger cut down their homes? (There are no wrong
answers, and if you feel like crying, it's ok. )

6. Teaching Math In 2007
Un hachero vende una carretada de made rapara $100. El
costo de la producciones es $80. Cuanto dinero ha
hecho?

excellent.

Its the same over here in UK, except 2007 would be in Polish not Spanish.

[goodduck]

so in 2007 the math is as rigourous as in 1950 and we are bilingual?

Ah thought the russian would be the leading language in the City ...

Here's one I thought you would enjoy and like to pass on to a few people.

A man walks into a bar... He sees a good-looking, smartly dressed woman sitting on the bar stool.
He walks up behind her and says, "Hi there; how's it going?"
Having already had a few drinks, she turns around, faces him, looks him straight in the eyes and says, "Listen! I'll screw anybody, any time, anywhere, your place, my place; it doesn't matter."
He says, "No kidding! I'm a lawyer too! What firm are you with?"

:blush:

An Important Energy Savings Statistic


A 2006 study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Americans drink an average of 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles per gallon."

A young blonde Portsmouth girl, down on her luck, decided to end it all one night by casting herself into the cold, dark waters off Gunwharf Quay.
As she stood on the edge, pondering the infinite, a young sailor noticed her as he strolled by. "You're not thinking of jumping, are you babes?" he asked.

"Yes, I am." replied the sobbing girl.

Putting his arm around her, the kind sailor coaxed her back from the edge. "Look, nothing's worth that. .... I'll tell you what, I'm sailing off for Australia tomorrow. Why don't you stow away on board and start a new life over there? I'll set you up in one of the lifeboats on the deck, bring you food and water every night and I'll look after you if you look after me - if you know what I mean? You just have to keep very quiet so that you won't be found."

The girl, having no better prospects, agreed, and the sailor sneaked her on board that very night. For the next 3 weeks the sailor came to her lifeboat every night, bringing food and water, and making love to her until dawn.

Then, during the fourth week, the captain was performing a routine inspection of the ship and its lifeboats. He peeled back the cover to find the startled blonde, and demanded an explanation.

The girl came clean, "I've stowed away to get to Australia. One of the sailors is helping me out. He set me up in here and brings me food and water every night and he's screwing me."

The captain stared at her for a moment before he replied,


















"He certainly is love. This is the Isle of Wight Ferry."
