What is 71 times 65 in ladder form

Haven't got a clue what is meant by the "ladder form" in multiplication.

Have the "education experts" on your board of education come up with another way to make something very simple into something quite complex?

Here is the simple universally accepted method.

71
x 65
------
__ 355
_426_
------
4615

(I used _ to show a space)
