We need 21st century skills in 2021…and we are already 21-years late!

I fully support this petition. We desperately need to renovate mathematics education in the United States. The primary objective must be to teach data science so that high school graduates are able to manipulate large data sets, perform analysis and draw informed conclusions. The real world already requires these skills, and we are falling short of preparing students for these demands.

We need to serve our kids better. People learn more when they smile, discover, and get intrigued.

I believe understanding stats and being more literate with reading and interpreting data will help young people avoid falling victim to various form of misinformation.

We need to teach 21st-century math. Additionally, it needs to be real-world math, math that is useful and enables the next generation to navigate, lead, build, and question the world.

I’m a Purdue graduate and worked at the Illinois Institute of Technology. I have worked in Inc 500, GovTech 100, and two Fortune 500 firms. We need this for our children and ourselves.

There is a need to reassess how we teach in the US, and one of the first ways we can better prepare our children for their futures is to teach them data literacy.

Data science and data literacy will be needed in most "knowledge worker" jobs and to read the news! Join the movement to build these skills in K-12!

This needs to happen! I am a high school math teacher, and our current curriculum is failing the majority of our students!
