Old Math? New Math? Math!

Clayton Edwards and Rebecca Robichaux-Davis

“It is what it is." That expression has become popular in response to challenging situations, in which one believes no change is possible, and we must accept the situation as is. So, what does that expression have to do with mathematics education? Symbolically, it may look like “a = a" or, holistically, it may mean “math is math." As mathematics educators, we embrace the latter—that math is math. However, in our work with parents and interactions with the general public, we find that many do not align with this view and

The Value of Computational Algorithms

Clayton Edwards and Rebecca Robichaux-Davis

Common computational algorithms have largely been accepted as important to teach over the years, as evidenced by specific Common Core State Standards for Mathematics requiring such algorithms to be mastered in grades 4–6 (NGA Center and CCSSO 2010). This is likely because of the characteristics of such “standard” algorithms: certainty, reliability, efficiency, and generalizability (Fan and Bokhove 2014). Multidigit addition and subtraction are introduced in grades 1–3, whereas multidigit multiplication and division are experienced in grades 3–5. Some of these standard algorithms can align closely to student-invented strategies, which are typically characterized by conceptual approaches
