The Geography of Singapore Math

Communities and countries (or schools and states) around the globe with the highest and lowest levels of adoption of the Singapore math curriculum, or part of it—which incorporates the best methodologies and pedagogies from both the East and the West—with some demographic or racial groups more receptive to embracing this alien math program than others.

The geography of Singapore math reveals a strong support among American homeschoolers and white middle-class families, who order tens of thousands of math titles every year from the “fine” city-state.

The Muskification of Singapore Math

When publishing houses in the “fine” city of Singapore give their oft-half-baked editorial staff and their semi-inept bosses an ultimatum: commit to high-quality publishing (with limited or quasi-zero resources) and willingness to go the extra (second) mile and helping the company to achieve exponential profitability.

In the Muskification of Singapore math exercise, some morally bankrupt managing editors and publishing managers have further slashed the already-low budget for proofreaders, reviewers, and consultants—editors and writers are expected to wear multiple hats while producing wallet-happy titles.
