A few words of Isabel Diaz Ayuso At the presentation of the study Empantallados, prepared by GAD3 and presented at the beginning of this week in Madrid, they opened a great debate on social networks. The president of the Community of Madrid said that the misuse of technologies and Artificial Intelligence “greatly harms training”: “It is causing new generations to be less patient, causing many students to turn to technology rather than solving problems and operations on their own”he assured.
To reaffirm her position, the Popular Party politician spoke about calculators: “It is a basic tool for complex operations, a great ally, but many, once they start using it, know that they always resort to it even when they have to solve simple operations and That's where you stop really learning mathematics.“.
The renowned Mathematics teacher and disseminator of Mathematical Sciences Clara Grima responded to his statement with the following message on X, the old Twitter: “To be bold you just need to be completely ignorant of the subject you are talking about”wrote the expert, who has more than 70,000 followers on the aforementioned social network. Her publication exceeds 4,000 'likes' and reaches more than 250,000 views.
On the comments wall of the divulger's post, the teacher received a wave of reactions for and against her words and those of Ayuso: “I don't understand and I am completely ignorant of the subject (I assume that the subject is teaching in primary school), what is the incorrect part of the sentence being quoted?” or “Knowing mathematics is not knowing how to add. It is knowing what to add. And for that it does not matter doing it with or without a calculator,” wrote some users among the thousands of responses.
