@ilana_horn The problem is, you can only teach/do what is possible. I hope teachers making this kind of temporary shift will remind themselves that the lessons they are REALLY teaching are more important: lessons about doing what is doable, giving yourself grace. Students see that & value it

Yes! If mathematics is the science of patterns, what does focusing on patterns help tell us about our gifts? And, are we remembering not to hoard those gifts? It's in the giving of gifts that we not only develop attachment to others, we grow!

Muchisimas gracias por el live tweeting. You covered it so well!!

What a talented artist!! Thank you for capturing the ideas so well.

You are so talented! Thank you for the beautiful representation.

Great thread!! I would add that in rethinking the current fuel source for math (fear) and replacing it with attachment, we find new ways to conceptualize life (the mathematics of love, joy, attachment, beauty, humility, kindness, etc).

??? I'd love to hear more

Good point! This speaks to what 🟣 Laurie Rubel 🎗️ was saying in her thread--what kind of maths we should be showcasing. We need to keep interrogating forms/uses of maths and what they say about not only who maths is by/for but also what constitutes maths and its purpose in our world

An important session to attend!

So deserved! Congratulations!!

Such important work!

Hermana, I'm back on, but still not so good at linking people's threads. So, perhaps you can join your thread to this one? I thought your ideas were so important.

Yes, this is the one I meant to link to! You are each bringing together complementary ideas.

If you're registered for the conference, I hope you'll join me tonight at 8:15pm ET in the After Dark session! I'm excited to engage in a deeper dialogue with you.

Yes! Teachers are dehumanized in this race to get back to "normal" even though "normal" is what got us into this mess! A window is open for us to not only give Ts time to reflect/plan, but to do so with idea that maybe we need to change some really significant things about maths

New AERA SIG: Sociopolitical Issues in Mathematics and Science Education! Join us on Friday for a presentation by Megan Bang and then be a part of the visioning for our future!

Join me and hosts Candis Callison @candiscallison, Shannon Mattern @shannonmattern & Desi Rodriguez-Lonebear Dr. Dr. Desi (she/her) for a Twiter Book Launch of 'Pollution is Colonialism' May 10, 4:30EDT. #PollutionIsColonialism Duke University Press

Wondering how to get support for your Rehumanizing Mathematics project? Come work with me & amazing colleagues this summer at PCMI! Applications due Jan. 15 ias.edu/pcmi/pcmi-2022…

Do you have a radical dream for your math space? There's still time to apply to the Rehumanizing Mathematics Workshop at Park City Math Institute this summer! I'll work with participants to support you in your project. International applications welcomed. ias.edu/pcmi/programs/…
