Description

Mathematics education in the United States often maintains social inequalities. Current teaching methods frequently use basic-skills curricula for low-income students of color or standards-based curricula for knowledge-intensive roles. This book, published by Routledge, examines how these systems function and why working for social change is rarely part of a math curriculum. Reading and Writing the World with Mathematics offers a new perspective on how math education should function. It argues that math should be a tool for students to investigate and critique injustice. Instead of just learning formulas, the text suggests that students can use mathematics to challenge oppressive systems through both words and actions. This work is part of the Critical Social Thought series and provides a framework for a pedagogy focused on social justice. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of mathematics, sociology, and social change.
