[Phys-l] Math Wars Peace Treaty

[Richard Hake <rrhake@earthlink.net>]

Physics educators may or may not be interested in a recent post 
"Math Wars Peace Treaty, " a follow on to the previously transmitted 
"Math Wars Peace Treaty? (was Letter in latest AJP)." 

The abstract reads:
******************************************
ABSTRACT:  I respond to seven criticisms of Daro's Math Wars Peace 
Treaty, posed by Michael Paul Goldenberg, a leading math-education 
reformer.  In my opinion, none of Michael's criticisms, including his 
well substantiated observation that the media favor traditional math 
education, negate the possible value of Daro's Treaty in bringing an 
end to the Math Wars and their collateral damage to children's 
education.
