Singapore Math Tourism

When math educators fly to the “fine” city of Singapore to attend a pep talk on the bar model method, and to visit a local school and watch a teacher conduct a problem-solving math lesson, before spending the rest of their educational trip on shopping and sightseeing.

When Singapore Math tourism visitors flew back home, they’d excitedly tell their principals or superintendents to embrace the Singapore Math model, by substituting their present dear mile-wide-inch-deep textbooks with wallet-friendly Singapore math titles, often much to the disapproval of their colleagues, who want to “Make US Math Great Again.”

Zombie Math Titles

Out-of-print math titles whose covers, contents, or creators the present generation could still remember, because when they were students, teachers, or parents, these wallet-friendly, brain-unfriendly books had positively impacted their mathematical learning or teaching, which were unsurprisingly bestsellers of their day.

Singapore’s zombie math titles of yesteryear like Fabian Ng’s “Process Skills in Problem Solving,” Dr Y H Leong’s “Challenging Problems in Mathematics,” and K C Yan’s “Mathematical Quickies & Trickies” had not only differentiated themselves from the sea of canned drill-and-kill titles, but they have since become an integral part of the local math education culture.

The Cecanization of Singapore Math

When the quality of Singapore math textbooks and supplementary titles took a beating in the last one and a half decades, because both local and foreign math editors were reporting to their oft-clueless bosses, who were recruited under the Singapore-India “Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement” (CECA), many of whom with quasi-zero understanding of the Singapore educational system and the local educational publishing industry.

It’s hard to estimate the reputational and economic costs suffered by publishing houses in the aftermath of the Cecanization of Singapore Math: resignation of editors, frustration of authors, rejection of textbooks, brand dilution, and the like.

“America First” Math

When the US is toying with the idea of imposing exorbitant tariffs on foreign publishers, which would make it hard for them to ship their wallet-friendly, brain-unfriendly math titles to American homeschoolers, students, and teachers.

A number of hardcore Trumpublicans want their senators to push for an “America First” math bill to protect local authors from being outwitted by their foreign counterparts, whose titles cost a fraction of most dear inch-deep-mile-wide US math textbooks.
