Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. MathLand was one of many controversial mathematics curricula that were designed around the 1989 NCTM standards. It was developed and published by Creative Publications and was initially adopted by the U.S. state of California and schools run by the US Department of Defense by the mid 1990s. Unlike more successful curricula such as Investigations in Numbers, Data, and Space, by 2007 Mathland was no longer offered by the publisher, and has since been dropped by many early adopters. Its fall was a result of intense scrutiny by critics; according a mathematics professor at U.C. Berkeley it is quite the worst math text I have ever come across". "
