New Report Reveals Deficiencies in Mathematics Education
WASHINGTON
A report released last month by the Education Trust marshals findings from several large-scale studies of mathematics achievement — both national and international — to argue that improving mathematics achievement in the United States will require a coordinated K-16 approach involving both K-12 and higher education.
The report provides one of the most comprehensive looks to date at what happens to American students as they progress through the system and how their mathematics experiences compare to those of their peers in other countries.
