What is math like here at High Tech High?
Math, most schools get graded on it but, In my personal opinion math shouldn't be graded by the level of peoples individual "intelligence" it should be graded by the effort made into it. Thats what we decided this year math would only be graded by the amount of time and work we put into a problem. We make writing papers based on how we felt on the topic and what we understood of it. It allowed me to try new things and go for it without the fear of my grade getting lower.
What have I learned?
I have learned to go beyond expectations and try challenging questions because it won't hurt to try. I have also learned about real world connections like business for our project "Shark Tank" and it showed me how business might look like and how many complications but success they have.
