So Russian Math, or more accurately Soviet Math, focuses on developing critical thinking? Strange for a country that was so viciously accused of brainwashing its population.
You’d think Fox news would have a hate boner for Critical Math Theory.
Looks like it is a small local affiliate, so the normal “Fox News” talking heads stuff isn’t the same problem. Or at least closer to actual stories as any other local outlet. But maybe the main network will keep it in the pocket for mixing into the red scare stuff.
Local news outlets tend to follow “objective journalism” practices unlike the national ones.
What I’ve seen from local statesian outlets is
THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO OUR DEMOCRACY
Induced by Sinclair Broadcasting Group owning a shitload of local news.
The US: This foreign country is broadcasting stuff on state owned media! Scary!
Also the US: A minority of corporations that don’t even pretend to be accountable to the public own the majority of broadcasting.
Critical Math is actually a thing but it’s not what’s described here. This math teaching method of learning math focused on problem solving rather than memorising processes is very common around the world. Critical mathematics goes into the dialectical role of mathematics in society, which Fox news would hate because it covers systemic oppression.
It was a joke; a riff off of critical race theory.
I know, I just wanted to use the opportunity to say that critical math is a real thing because it’s cool
Ah, so they’re learning math now. The real way.
