    Math..in a debate forum. Ever debated questions in math? Like when a teacher screws up? Good idea, or is it a bad one?
    Effectively math debating. Your opinion on math debating? Good or bad?

    here's my opinion on math. It is evil, vile, and it derserves to be washed from kid's brains and never taught at a school again

    As a math major(and probably the best mathematician on KHV >>) there is no debating in math. It's not political. There's only right or wrong. As for anything else like how a teacher actually conducts the class...then yeah, you can complain about that. I'm thankful my experiences with math teachers have generally been very good.

    I can guarantee there is such a thing as math debating.

    I've never had it except for a right and wrong answer, and the people debating over the answer. I use Math-U-See, so I don't need to argue with anyone, it's a DVD

    How so then? If someone screws up in an answer it's just human error. It happens. Just as long as the teacher fesses up to it, it's all good. I'll admit you can debate about that as long as it's a real mistake instead of something you think is a mistake.
