Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

Fans of Dr. Doolittle may recall his famous fictional beast, the Push-Me-Pull-You. It had heads at both ends but never knew which way to go. Many secondary school mathematics teachers feel as though they are trying to ride one of these creatures when they examine the NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards (1989) and then turn around to consider the institutional demands of their schools and local universities.
