Millersville University of Pennsylvania

Description:
Designed for graduate level students with an interest in equity issues in mathematics education. In this course, we examine issues of equity in mathematics education from various theoretical and practical perspectives and long lines of race, gender, culture and socioeconomic status. It is a reading-intensive course that spans such topics as the achievement gap, tracking, culturally-relevant pedagogy, multiculturalism, the nature of mathematics and mathematics for democracy and social justice. Course assignments will be differentiated to ensure they are relevant to the concerns of both practicing teachers as well as students without a teaching background that intend to pursue further graduate study.
