Jim Abrams Director of Mathematics Education Vermont Institute for Science, Math and Technology 7 West Street Montpelier, Vt 05602 Ph: (802) 828-0069 ---------- From: Margaret Carusona <[log in to unmask]> To: Middle Level Mathematics Network <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: FW: controversy of standards and programs Date: Wed, Nov 10, 1999, 3:22 PM ------------------- Barbara If teacher's pick and choose the units they teach then how do you decide what units? Are all the standards being covered? Why purchase the entire program?It seems to me that it is like purchasing a textbook,a pre-algebra series or other middle level math series and it is impossible to cover the entire book. Margaret
