Ask any student which subject he or she hates most.9 out of 10 students will probably answer "math" no matter which County you visit,no matter which grade you are in, you may not learn art, geography, chemistry, or biology, but you always learn math. Why is this so? How come so many students hate math, and yet cannot avoid learning it in school?
Jenny Sanders, a high school student in California, asks,"what good do we get from learning math? We can use calculators to compute numbers, and we can use computers to crunch data. I think learning math at school is a waste. "
However, there is much more to math than just learning to add and subtract numbers. In fact, math is not so much about calculation as it is about learning to think logically and solving problems. Of course, Jenny was right that we can use computers to do calculations, but how would we even know how to use the computer if we can't think logically? In short, computer are only tools when solving problems.
