Mathematics and I


In one word, frustrating. Always I think I understand and I am glad because of that, I get to the test and and nothing, all in white.
I do not remember it was so difficult, moreover, before I got sevens. I learned to add, to subtract, to multiply, to divide, even solved linear equations. But learning to derive, derivative as rate of change, exponential functions and logarithmic functions, that, this is something else, this is a difference level. These are useless things in real life. They say that is to developed logical thinking and rational thinking, to obtains cognitive skills and solve problems of life. This is their application.

But, Why not read more Platón?, What about social skills?, with them also resolved logical problem and developed critical thinking, moreover, thanks to these we can apply criteria that for math do not exist, for example, the person, the group of people,  the diversity and the inclusion. For math are all equal. That’s its error, its grave error. We are all different; we are all capable and very important. Not everyone likes these little problems wanting to be solved with a curve and a slope. That frustrates me and bothers me.
