In the war years, algebra had one understood purpose: to help the military and industries with the war effort. Math educators hoped to help their students see the need for algebra in the life of an everyday citizen. [1] The report outlined three strategies that helped math educators emphasize the everyday usage of algebra.
Alternatively—since the previous result can be unaesthetic, especially for inlined formulae presented as an image whose baseline does not line up with that of the running text—the punctuation can be placed after the </math> tag and then the whole formula (including the punctuation) can be enclosed with the {} template, as in This shows that ...
[[Category:Mathematics templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Mathematics templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.
The Principles and Standards for School Mathematics was developed by the NCTM. The NCTM's stated intent was to improve mathematics education. The contents were based on surveys of existing curriculum materials, curricula and policies from many countries, educational research publications, and government agencies such as the U.S. National Science Foundation.

This template's initial visibility currently defaults to expanded, meaning that it is fully visible. To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{ Math templates | state = collapsed }} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.
Proponents of reform mathematics countered that research showed that correctly-applied reform math curricula taught students basic math skills at least as well as curricula used in traditional programs, and additionally that reform math curricula was a more effective tool for teaching students the underlying concepts.

It is also a competition held by the Texas Math and Science Coaches Association, using the same rules as the UIL. Calculator Applications is designed to test students' abilities to use general calculator functions. Calculator Applications replaced the Slide Rule contest previously held by UIL.
The math template formats mathematical formulas generated using HTML or wiki markup. (It does not accept the AMS-LaTeX markup that <math> does.) The template uses the texhtml class by default for inline text style formulas, which aims to match the size of the serif font with the surrounding sans-serif font (see below).
