WTF is woke math?
Here are some examples from the text books
“What? Me? Racist?” says a lesson titled “Adding and Subtracting Polynomials.”
“More than 2 million people have tested their racial prejudice using an online version of the Implicit Association Test. Most groups’ average scores fall between ‘slight’ and ‘moderate bias, but the differences among groups by age and political identification, are intriguing,” the problem states.
It goes on to share a formula, telling students they will partake in exercises using a model to measure bias.
Another problem involves graphs that supposedly measure levels of racial prejudice and are broken down by age and political identification. They were based on the Implicit Association Test, as was the polynomials lesson, although it wasn’t clear if both problems were from the same rejected textbook.
A third posted lesson said its objective was for students to “build proficiency with social awareness as they practice with empathizing with classmates.” The so-called Social Emotional Learning (SEL) in math is prohibited in Florida.
This has nothing to do with math
The fourth image shows text that says the problem’s goal is “focusing on students’ social and emotional learning.”

Math books should be focused on teaching math
