Common Core: The Math Dilemma

As always, we have projects during our undergraduate courses that are requirements. We may, or may not, enjoy those projects that we're given. Sometimes, though, those projects turn into valuable information that other may not have thought about, like this one. I was not always good at math, so when they started "changing math" I was concerned I would have to relearn some things. I chose to do a research project for my communications class on common core math, which had just begun to get implemented at the time. I presented this to the math department for their insight into what was coming, providing invaluable first hand information that they may not have otherwise had.
