<< I have seen students with
math anxiety so profound that I would equate it to other anxiety disorders
that we generally treat with more respect -- fear of flying, etc. >>
But people *can* get over the fear of flying, the fear of heights, the fear of
sp-sp-sp-spiders, etc. It's a matter of exposure. Why should math be any
different?
