ITP 565 Equity-Centered Mathematics Methods 1 for Elementary Educators

Prepares candidates to teach mathematics for social justice through equity-centered, research based instructional practices. Supports candidates in developing anti-racist/anti-bias pedagogy by interrupting the notion of mathematics as neutral through exploration of instructional practices that center, support and affirm often-marginalized identities. Emphasizes meaningful understanding of elementary-level mathematics content and situates teaching, learning, and assessment within the context of state and national standards as well as research-proven practices.
