Very interesting lawsuit being filed against the Seattle School District by Cliff Mass and friends (UW weather professor). It cites Discovery Math as disadvantaging low income, black and hispanic kids.

Bien,

I did not find the video “disconnected” whatsoever. I am unsure why you feel this way, because I found the video to be spot-on and extremely relevant. Maybe take notes next time and summarize the main points, and read them back to yourself once or twice so you get the gist of it.

@Corn

That’s about the most disconnected video I’ve seen in a long time, full of bits of everything under the sun, and the very definition of Corny.

But out of respect to you, I watched the whole thing.
