She's a Stanford professor who is responsible for the new California Math Framework — a set of curriculum recommendations that advocate against teaching algebra to most of the state's gifted middle-schoolers in the name of equity.

She's also an academic fraud and a hypocrite who sends her kid to a private school, where Middle Schoolers are taught ***drum roll*** algebra.

She's a Stanford professor of math education who's arguably most responsible for the new California Math Framework — a set of curriculum recommendations that advocate against teaching algebra to most of the state's gifted middle-schoolers in the name of equity.

But she's sent her own children to a $48,000/year private school that teaches its middle schoolers algebra, and now she's accused of significantly distorting citations in her research to support conclusions the original studies never reached. Much of this research underpins the new Framework.

California is a bigger threat to the rest of the country than China and Iran combined. Pure poisonous shite hole. May a great calamity claim it.

Interesting how time and time again a Progressive ultimately gets exposed for being a complete fraud.

It’s almost as if they don’t even believe in the shite they try and push on everyone else…..go figure.

So add her to the ever growing list of higher education academics that are frauds.



It really is kind of amazing that in a generation they’ve managed to completely besmirch what used to be one of the most lauded and respected professions.

I remember in the 90s when it surfaced that Ninov had been falsifying data for his research. It sent shockwaves through the entire physics community. They rescinded his PhD, there were investigations into his university (I believe it was Berkeley at the time), even his committee members came under fire. Anything and everything he had ever touched was questioned and everyone did everything they could to distance themselves from him.

Now, those kinds of people have become the heads of some of the most prestigious universities in the world.

The “gifted” kids? Shouldn’t the “gifted” kids be able to handle algebra? Is her end game, in the name of equity, to stifle the education of the gifted kids so that they end up equally stupid with the dumbasses? This makes no sense, but none of this equity crap makes any sense.

So "equity" in algebra is to not teach it at all to middle schoolers?

What if, you know in the name of "equity", we actually spent MORE time and resources teaching it to black middle school students?

make no mistake; this isn't some low-intelligence person applying dumb reasoning.

This is E.V.I.L. pure and simple.

There is no excuses or justifications for what's happening.

Quintessential NIMBY leftist who experiments on others but not herself or her people. They're sick people and give no shits, it's all about their own selfish ego to feel fulfilled and you'll take your medicine dammit.

Why is it so hard for the left to understand that dragging down the top doesn't raise up the bottom? It only means that everyone swims in the same pool of mediocrity.

Is it really a secret now that Democrats want to keep their voters as stupid as humanly possible? They do this in the name of "equality". Just sick and evil.
