What is teaching and learning mathematics for social justice (TLMSJ)? How has TLMSJ been taken up in education—both historically contemporarily? Along with unpacking these two central questions, another purpose of this article to assess the current capacity stance toward addressing issues racial injustice. We begin an overview as epistemic perspective introduce analytical lens based on selected tenets critical race theory. then use examine extant scholarship broadening possibilities...
The lack of mathematics academic achievement and persistence in African American male students is well documented the K-12 education research literature. Moreover, it has been that this trend underachievement continues higher for some men. In article, author refutes myth are doomed to failure by drawing on literature highlights strengths learners documenting “voice” an doctoral student.Coupling critical race theory with case study research, chronicles schooling, mathematics, racial...
The stories of high-achieving African American mathematics students are gaining prominence in the research literature. In this multiple case study, I use a critical race theoretical frame to document and analyze experiences 4 mathematically persistent male who earned undergraduate degrees subsequently enrolled or education graduate programs. findings reveal that these men drew from internal factors influence their mathematical persistence identified how racial microaggressions manifest...
The Brilliance of Black Children in Mathematics, I posit that it is important to emphasize the coupling "Black" and brilliance.Those concerned with mathematics education all children, believe, must bring issues race fore investigate racialized experiences (and all) students such a way celebrates brilliance children possess rather than their perceived "at-risk" status.As stands, critical theory (CRT) theoretical framework has been used forward research general particular.In this paper, focus...
Four strategies can be effective in creating supportive learning environments.
In this article, two teacher educators reflect on their experiences teaching a diversity course for preservice middle-school teachers. The first author is an African American male educator, and the second White female educator. While authors bring distinct experiences, backgrounds, epistemologies to work, both seek prepare teachers with skills dispositions needed meet needs of culturally diverse students. Including narratives in own words, share make recommendations those doing work...
Being the valedictorian is highest honor bestowed upon a senior. Unfortunately, that was not case for Jeffrey and Autry, two high-achieving African American male participants in this critical race qualitative study, who were short-changed of their status. Their cases reveal three themes: (1) these Black students shocked they did receive exploited process, (2) there unfair institutional policies practices associated with title, (3) drastic differences regarding academic expectations other...
In this article, the author shares an intervention of using children’s literature as a pedagogical frame for undergraduate mathematics content course with early childhood education majors to influence their thinking about teaching and learning. With case study 29 preservice teachers, found that increased elementary teachers’ excitement mathematics, heightened self-efficacy in motivated them design innovative lessons. By elaborating on these findings, makes continued need mathematically...
Purpose Much of the extant research literature on initiatives to attract, inspire and recruit Black males teaching profession has focused middle high school students. boys’ socialization into dominant narratives regarding who can cannot become teachers occurs as early in childhood classrooms; however, little attention been given ways them professional ranks where a paltry 2 per cent are men. Design/methodology/approach This paper explores concept imaginative play experiences with respect...
Equity-related issues are a critical contemporary concern in mathematics education, and one specific area that has been taken up deals with equitable instructional modalities. However, the focus of many these discussions, meetings, publications is on K–12 education. This study reports aspect an ongoing, equity issue undergraduate education – face-to-face versus online instruction. In so doing, it investigates this surrounding learning African American (Both Black used interchangeably...
The disproportionate representation of Black men in mathematics has perplexed researchers for decades, and the undergraduate space been championed as a lever to help remedy this issue. Thus, more research is needed that examines men’s experiences majors. To advance knowledge field higher education, yearlong ethnographic study uses masculinity theory examine Morehouse College’s learning community, which comprised 16 graduating seniors. I use demographic surveys, semi-structured interviews,...
This case study examines the PreK-16 schooling experiences of nine McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement Program Scholars from a large, urban university in southeast with respect to culturally relevant teaching. highlights an effort assist educators creating spaces that allow diverse learners thrive. Using students’ guide this study, authors discover were successful their educational pursuits despite some barriers. Furthermore, discuss implications at micro- and macro-levels concerning...
Black males' collegiate experiences in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are gaining traction the research literature. In this work, scholars utilizing asset-based approaches to examine STEM. Asset-based orientations also being extended work on, for, with families. Of utmost importance respect article, fathers play a significant role their sons' lives. Thus, considerable attention should be paid fatherson dyad by practitioners researchers. This case study examines ten...
ABSTRACTSchool-aged Black boys are mathematically gifted; however, they often underserved vis-à-vis their mathematics education. In this article, we provide guidance for multiple stakeholders to support and elevate high-quality learning opportunities male youth. doing so, begin by engaging W. E. B. Du Bois' storytelling. We then offer BlackCrit as a theoretical frame enrich evidence-based work regarding teachers culturally relevant pedagogy. also advocate the establishment of "grow-your-own"...
