The Grobalization of Singapore Math

When both local and foreign math publishers in Singapore—with the backing of government-linked businesses or organizations, and positive feedback from thousands of homeschoolers overseas—aim to influence or impose their ways of teaching and learning elementary school math around the world—they desire to grow in power and profits to an eager global audience that is keen to emulate Singapore’s math success at home.

Just as the principles of McDonaldization has been applied to the church and religion, mathepreneurs aren’t shy to apply the grobalization of Singapore math to colonize math education around the globe.

The Half-Life of Singapore Math

The time it takes for the bar model method, the heart and soul of Singapore math, to become a common feature in most math curriculums around the world, which implicitly means that it no longer holds the competitive edge over other developed nations in math education.

With pirates from both developing and developed countries leveraging on AI, the half-life of Singapore math is getting exponentially shorter, and the “fine” city of Singapore risks being innovated away if local math educators don’t act now.

The Zombification of Singapore Math

When math writers and publishers in the “fine” city of Singapore discover that math-anxious students are more inclined or motivated to solve brain-unfriendly word problems or fiendish questions that involve ghosts, vampires, zombies, and other paranormal or satanic figures rather than those dealing with humans or animals.

The zombification of Singapore math has alarmed a number of conservative or puritan parents and homeschoolers both locally and abroad, especially in red-pilled states that have a significant proportion of ultra-MAGA or anti-woke voters.
