The document discusses several curricular issues in mathematics education including self-esteem, effective instructional approaches, and real-life applications of mathematics. It notes that self-esteem impacts the choices students make and their capabilities. Effective mathematics instruction includes systematic and explicit teaching, self-instruction, peer tutoring, and visual presentations. Real-world math problems should be analyzed with theoretical models and classroom applications to develop students' relevant skills, however, education standards do not provide clear guidance on how teachers can structure their syllabus to do so.
