Description of Presentation:

What does it take to create and sustain a community of learners—teachers and students—that collectively works toward supporting all students to fully engage with learning meaningful and empowering mathematics? Join us as we share our stories about teaching and learning math at Railside High from a variety of perspectives, including those of Railside students, math teachers, researchers, and contributors to the new book, Mathematics for Equity. This session includes posters about various pieces of research done at Railside, opportunities to interact with Railside students and teachers, and a whole-group discussion about what makes transformative teaching and learning possible, challenging, and necessary.
