Google still believes in net neutrality and has more money for lobbyists than the ISPs and communication companies acting in their own interest. It could happen. It IS Google, right?

I'm a highschool math/physics teacher and I deal with students on a daily basis who have no idea how to deal with fractions, percentages, how to represent a situation algebraically or how to solve an algebraic equation. The prerequisite to my physics course is to have passed Algebra I and Geometry with an average of 80%. After reading, I'm under the impression that the study does not suggest removal of math from school altogether, but merely removing it from the earlier curriculum (1st - 5th grade). I'm not entirely sure what the equivalency is here in the US, but this much I do know: more complex math concepts keep getting pushed down into the lower grade levels. The average 5th-grader does not have the capacity to do algebra. That needs to go... as well as all of this "lattice multiplication" business.
