Math quetions biased?

Question

If math questions biased, why answer them?...
or, perhaps it got someones attention, just enough to answer it?..
do math teachers go through the motions to get by?
could it be they themselves do not know enough math to even teach it?.
or perhaps they are just burned out from students who just don't care, they to begin to not care?

or?..
they work they do is simply not appreciated enough, hence not compensated enough?...
do math teachers who get paid well try harder than those that make less?..
if students got paid for doing math, would they do better?....

Answer 1

The teachers do a good job. The students need to learn (even if the teachers do a bad job!) cause if they don't, they're the ones who will suffer, not the teachers

Answer 2

Although maths is exact it starts with obvious truths that are not provable. These are based on experience. For example 1+1=2. No one would contradict this based on experience. We cannot prove it mathematically - it is a given truth. Maths starts with these given truths, and by precise mathematical rules and logic produces other truths which are not so obvious.

Now here is an example where 1 - 1 = 1:

everything comes from Krishna, He is the source of everything. And yet He remains the same complete person.

Mathematically it doesn't make sense - that is because mathematics is based on given truths based on our material experience. But Krishna is beyond our material understanding.

So we have to understand the limitations of the subjects we are learning so that we are not limited and biased by them.

Answer 3

Some excellent questions. I'm not sure how you'd 'bias' a math question, but the rest of them are certainly well worth thinking about.

Lee Iacoca probably said it best, "In a rational society, only the very best would be allowed to be teachers. Everyone else would have to settle for something less."

Answer 4

A Teacher gets paid.. So why should he care.. At a University level most of te wrk is done by Self Study.. The Proffessor only comes to the room, "blablablablablabla" shows a couple of examples, that's it... It's all about the individual's will to learn and study

Answer 5

Math is an exact science with no room for interpretation or bias.

Answer 6

math is percise and exact unless your discussing theoretical science/math equations
