Math

A four-letter word that traditionally used to be called “arithmetic” in elementary or primary school—the third “R” in Reading, wRiting, and aRithmetic. A much-disliked school subject that is mostly used as a social filter to separate the nerds from the herd, or to politically decide the future haves and the have-nots in society.
Unlike our parents and grandparents who’re schooled in old-school math, we’re now taught new math (which includes new ways to add, subtract, and multiply numbers), Common Core math (which incorporates many new math techniques), and Singapore math (which integrates the concrete-pictorial-abstract (CPA) approach to learning math and the bar model method to solve word problems).

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.

The Trumpification of Singapore Math

When uninhibited math educators in the “fine” city of Singapore have started posing word problems that use rogue characters who exhibit the idiocies and idiosyncrasies of Mr. Pinocchio and his team of morally corrupt lawmakers and semi-innumerate advisors.
The Trumpification of Singapore math has sprung a dozen-odd politically incorrect titles that aim to hone students’ and parents’ critical thinking skills in mathematics.
