The first thing people remember about failing at math is that it felt like sudden death.Whether the incident occurred while learning "word problems" in sixth grade, coping with equations in high school, or first confronting calculus and statistics in college, failure came suddenly and in a very frightening way! If we assume that the curriculum was reasonable, and that the new idea was but the next in a series of learnable concepts, the feeling of utter defeat was simply not rational; yet "math anxious" college students and adults have revealed that no matter how much the teacher reassured them, they could not overcome that feeling.
A common myth about the nature of mathematical ability holds that one either has or does not have a mathematical mind.Mathematical imagination and an intuitive grasp of mathematical principles may well be needed to do advanced research, but why should people who can do college-level work in other subjects not be able to do college-level math as well? Rates of learning may vary.Competency under time pressure may differ.Certainly low self-esteem will get in the way.But where is the evidence that a student needs a "mathematical mind" in order to succeed at learning math?
Consider the effects of this mythology.Since only a few people are supposed to have this mathematical mind, part of what makes us so passive in the face of our difficulties in learning mathematics is that we suspect all the while we may not be one of "them" , and we spend our time waiting to find out when our nonmathematical minds will be exposed.Since our limit will eventually be reached, we see no point in being methodical of in attending to detail.We are grateful when we survive fractions, word problems or geometry.If that certain moment of failure hasn’t struck yet, it is only temporarily postponed.
Parents, especially parents of girls, often expect their children to be nonmathematical.Parents are either poor at math or they failed themselves.In either case, they unwillingly foster the idea that a mathematical mind is something one either has or does not have.

选项
答案
