Who Gets Access: Teaching the Mathematician, Not the Mathematics

Description

Why do students who have been systematically marginalized have less opportunities to problem solve? Why do we assume that because these students appear to be "behind" in their mathematical thinking that they CAN'T think like mathematicians? Join us as we explore how to change this paradigm and engage all students in rich mathematical experiences.
