ICUCARE in Action: Math Teacher Educators Share Insights and Strategies on Fostering Equity

June 21, 2024, 9am PT/10am MT/11am CT/12pm ET

Cost: Free, Members Only (Not a member? Join today!)

Presenters: Norma Borenstein-Gordon, Stephanie Casey, Rileigh Luczak, Jenn Malue, Amanda Meiners, Sheila Orr, Laura Van Zoest

Description:

Join us for an exploration of the transformative ICUCARE framework, seven principles of equity pedagogy, featured in Choosing to See: A Framework for Equity in the Math Classroom (Seda & Brown, 2021). We’ve invited math teacher educators to share their experiences and insights on integrating the ICUCARE framework with the AMTE community. Our upcoming webinar aims to showcase the power of this framework in fostering equity and inclusivity within math education. During the webinar, the panel will discuss key components of ICUCARE and its many applications. We are excited to bring together math teacher educators like yourself to share strategies, challenges, and successes around implementing this framework.

The Growing Role of Statistics and Data Science in Grades 6-12 Education: Implications for Mathematics Teacher Educators

Thursday, October 12 2023, 12:00 pm Pacific; 3:00 pm Eastern

Registration Link

A Zoom link will be sent upon registration.

Description:

The need for everyone to develop data literacy has never been greater, and increasingly more careers are using data, statistics, modeling, and advanced technological skills! Recent initiatives at the national and state levels have increased the prominence of data science and statistics (DS&S) in the K-12 curriculum, and some states have embedded data science concepts and skills into their curriculum standards. What does this mean for the preparation of mathematics teachers? How are mathematics teacher education programs changing to prepare preservice and inservice teachers to teach DS&S? This webinar is designed for participants to: 1) Understand the current international, national, and state initiatives that are driving change regarding DS&S education; 2) Learn about the results of a recent research study of early career mathematics teachers’ knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and practices about teaching data and statistics; 3) Consider and discuss how teachers are currently prepared to teach DS&S and the challenges faced in advancing DS&S in teacher education programs; and 4) Learn about curricular, technological, and community supports for DS&S education that are available to support mathematics teacher educators.

Community Conversation: Trans Rights are Human Rights: Where is our responsibility as mathematics teacher educators to humane mathematics teaching?

Friday August 4, 2023, 12:00 pm Pacific; 3:00 pm Eastern

Registration Link: https://forms.gle/ChK9CsYb9PTFnnXVA

A Zoom link will be sent prior to the event.

Description:

Across the United States and the world, there is a rise in policies that target the health and safety of transgender folx (e.g., bans on gender-affirming healthcare, sweeping bathroom restrictions, etc.) These restrictive bills and policies also play a role in our schools: the availability of inclusive and affirming curriculum, acknowledging children and youth names and pronouns, among other aspects. Amidst these inhumane policies and laws, there is joy to be found when we embrace the fact that trans rights are human rights. To begin our conversation, the speakers will address the ways in which they act for trans rights, and for LGBTQ+ rights more broadly. Then, our conversation will highlight issues such as what’s at stake, how teachers and teacher educators can affirm students’ whole identities, including their genders, addressing common stereotypes about trans folx, and suggestions for how to be an ally. The conversation is open to all members who are interested in ways that we can envision the phrase, “trans rights are human rights” in our practice and with our students.

NTLI Award Webinar: Transformative Technology for Equity-centered Instruction

Thursday, March 24, 5:00-6:00 pm Eastern Time

Presenters: Jennifer Suh, George Mason University; Katherine Roscioli, George Mason University; Holly Tate, George Mason University; Kimberly Morrow-Leong, George Mason University

Abstract: Our session will focus on an equity-centered technology integration framework (EQTtech) that promotes equity-based teaching practices using technology. The integrated framework presents five dimensions for evaluating the impact of technology tools on a lesson designed for a particular audience: 1) access to inquiry-based learning, 2) the development of student identity, 3) useful formative assessment and feedback, 4) student empowerment through collective thinking, and 5) the amplification of mathematical thinking processes. The initial framework offers a structure to support preservice and inservice teachers as they design lessons and formative assessments that intentionally employ technology to not only capitalize on the affordances of the available tools, but which is also responsive to the strengths students bring to the classroom. The EQTtech Tool invites teachers to attend to mathematical learning goals, view students’ progress along a given learning trajectory in a mathematical domain and make deliberate selections from among digital and non-digital tools in a way that both challenges and supports students.
