Earlier this year the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, or SIAM, conducted a survey of over 1,500 high school students. In this survey, they asked a few questions about math that are helping to identify some of the myths and barriers that are keeping students from succeeding.
Math can be a difficult subject. In school, I remember being fairly good at math but it seemed a lot of my fellow students were not. There were times when I helped to tutor other students in the class and I found that helping someone understand mathematical concepts was quite rewarding. Once a student understood the basic concepts everything else seemed to fall into place. That being said I often wondered why some people had an easy time with math and others did not.
This graph shows the results from the question"What do you see as being the biggest misconceptions students have about math?"Debunking these myths could play a large role in furthering math education. Any one of these misconceptions could stop a student from embracing the subject and possibly end their attempt at pursuing a STEM career. Addressing them will mean that more students give math a chance to enrich their lives.When studying math it can be easy to get frustrated.
