Teaching Math or teaching students?

Rochelle Gutierrez, PhD, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign visited our Learning Sciences Institute recently to present her work on pedagogy and student math teachers. Her presentation draws on Latina/Latino studies to offer a potential framework for reconceptualizing knowledge and for engaging teacher candidates in a process that acknowledges the complex identities of students.

It’s an interesting perspective in identity, power, and shape-shifting which addresses the unique student-teacher relationship of knowing/not-knowing and learning about each other while engaging in learning math.
