author: David J. Hoff
description: "The Bush administration is preparing a campaign to highlight math and science education and improve the way schools teach the subjects, entering the fray on an issue that has split advocates of a basic-skills focus and educators of a more progressive bent...One of the goals of the federal initiative, the administration official said, is to find a way for the opposing sides to agree on basic principles of mathematics education. "We have to move people from the battle lines," the official said. "We all want the same thing: for children to get a strong foundation in mathematics.""
