© 2003 Michigan State University Mathematics is cumulative.  Properly done, the topics in each year depend on the topics covered in previous years.  When one fails to take this cumulative nature into account, the study of mathematics degenerates into a relatively meaningless list-making and memorization of unconnected factoids – something particularly damaging for weaker students.
