The hatred of mathematics.

Mathematics, a headache.

I decided to talk about this topic because a few days ago one of my nephews had to study for his math exam, and this was quite a drama, he did not want to study because he does not like mathematics, well actually he said he hated mathematics, so I wanted to find out the reason for his hatred, for which he replied that mathematics is very boring, and that is why I started looking for the reasons why most children do not like mathematics.

The first reason is that the teaching model within educational institutions is not adequate, they only want children to memorize, and the brain is not designed to memorize and less at such a short age in which children need to be active.

Children do not find meaning in this subject because they do not relate it to something in which they develop.

A critical but very real point is that, at present, at least as far as Mexico is concerned, some of the teachers who teach mathematics (and well most of the subjects at the elementary level) are not well prepared to teach children.

They are also not taught the reasoning why it is done that way, children want to know the reason for doing things, and teachers must know how to answer those why.

Everyone knows that we develop differently, not all of us learn at the same pace and with the same teaching method, but the educational method is done so as not to wait for others, so it is important to change teaching especially in this type of subject that at the time was or still is a headache for some.

The 11 Propaganda Principles of Joseph Goebbels. Who was Joseph Goebbels? Joseph Goebbels was the father of Nazi propaganda and head of the Ministry of Popular Education and Propaganda, created by Adolf Hitler when he came to power in 1933. Goebbels had been the director of the Nazi Party's communication task and the great architect of the rise to can.

Political fanaticism.

Political fanaticism. In recent years, a very latent phenomenon that has been growing dangerously and vertiginously, in a context of high polarization; this distorter is presented as an enemy of electoral conscience and a healthy and mature democracy, it is political fanaticism. But let's start by defining fanaticism: According to the definition of the Royal Spanish Academy : it is an “excessive passion and tenacity in the defense of beliefs or opinions, especially religious or political ones”. For Voltaire: “Fanaticism is to superstition what delirium is to fever, what rage is to anger. He who has ecstasies, visions, who takes dreams for realities and his imaginations for prophecies is a novice fanatic with great hopes; he may soon get to kill for God's sake." Therefore, fanaticism is identified by the desire to impose their ideas, despise those who are different, be based on a series of thoughts that ar...
