Reviews of CPM Math: College Preparatory Mathematics Reviews of CPM Math: College Preparatory Mathematics Basic Information and Introduction The College Preparatory Mathematics (CPM) curriculum is developed and published by CPM Educational Program, Sacramento, CA. The principal authors are Judith Kysh, Tom Sallee, and Brian Hoey. The CPM web site is. The curriculum has a middle school and a high school component. The middle school texts, which would most likely be used in 7th and 8th grade, are • Foundations for Algebra, Year 1 • Foundations for Algebra, Year 2 The high school texts are • Math 1: Algebra 1 • Math 2: Geometry • Math 3: Algebra 2 • Math 4: Math Analysis • Math 5: AP Calculus Critical Reviews and Commentaries. The CPM Algebra 1 program was submitted to the California Content Review Panel for statewide adoption in 2001, but this submission was withdrawn.

Professor Wayne Bishop, a member of the 1999 and 2001 Content Review Panels, performed an unofficial evaluation of the Algebra 1 program. His conclusion: '[M]ost of the program is below the specified standards level and there is too much of an assumption that work will be done in teams. Although the publisher claims that all standards are met, several are clearly not met and several more identified herein as met are, in fact, not adequately met. Finally, there is a systemic misconception as to what is meant by logical argument in mathematics.

If a statement looks to be true, students are told to put it into their 'Tool Kit', then to be available in all settings of study and assessment thereafter.' , by David Klein (ASBJ, Apr 2000). About CPM Prof. Klein writes: '[. Huawei U8800 Pro Pc Suite. ] The principal technique in this series is the so-called guess and check method, which encourages repeated guessing of answers over the systematic development of standard mathematical techniques. Because of the availability of calculators that can solve equations, the introduction to the series explains that CPM puts low emphasis on symbol manipulation and that CPM differs from traditional mathematics courses both in the mathematics that is taught and how it is taught. In one section, students watch a candle burn down for an hour while measuring its length versus the time and then plotting the results. In a related activity, students spend a whole class period on the athletic field making human coordinate graphs.

These activities are typical of the time sacrificed to simple ideas that can be understood more efficiently through direct explanation. But in CPM, direct instruction is systematically discouraged in favor of group work.' CPM was one of the programs designated 'Exemplary' by the United States Department of Education in 1999. The designation of this and several other 'fuzzy math' programs as Promising or Exemplary gave rise to this open letter that was endorsed by over 200 professional mathematicians and scientists.
