Electronics have all evolved so much from the '90s, but graphic calculators are exactly the same. Same design, price, features, even the companies that make them are the same two companies.

What's going on here

Tell that to the people who constantly blow up my inbox with emails about common core, doing math with squares and test examples that glorify adultery.

I agree, common core is bullshit, true math teachers dont take it seriously, and Ive seem groups of them stand up and walk out of meetings about it in protest.

Only people who think so are the people who have no fucking clue what common core is.

You mean like pretty much all the math teachers nationwide who have been fighting it?

Even if that were an accurate depiction of what was going on, and I don't think it is, it would be natural to react negatively to anyone trying to mandate goals on your job performance.

I literally sat in on a meeting where district staff were explaining common core math. They said now if a kid says 2 + 2 = 3, thats okay, as long as they can show justification for how they got there. The entire math section got up in unison and walked out. Im sure that response wasnt exclusive to my district.

I don't see how that's a bad thing. It seems like it would encourage freer and more critical analysis of problems. Obviously the converse of "that's okay, as long as they can show justification for how they got there." is "that's not okay if they cannot show justification for how they got there" - then it's the teacher's job to... you know, teach the kid why it's not right.

There's nothing so universal in the common core standards. Have you ever actually given them a skim?

Why don't you pull a standard from the actual documentation that you have an issue with?

I'm honestly surprised they haven't gone down in price

Texas Instruments has a virtual monoploy and gets away with charging ridiculous prices for ancient tech that barely costs them anything to produce.
