What Research Can Tell Us About Equity in Math
Description:
As district leaders continue to prioritize educational equity initiatives, practitioners are tasked with driving those initiatives by translating equity research to actionable strategies. In math, the need for equitable instruction couldn’t be more urgent: math skills are critical for college & career, but all too many students encounter barriers to success. During this panel, PreK-12 experts will review what research tells us about making math accessible, engaging, and rigorous for all learners
