From the Root to the SUM: Reflections on Culturally Relevant Pedagogy in Mathematics

Abstract

My focus in this reflection is on the role of mathematics teacher education in the preparation of culturally relevant teachers for urban schools. Drawing from the sociology of urban mathematics education (SUM) framework, I explore the current blind spots in our view of the preparation of culturally relevant mathematics teachers for urban schools. I also offer a vision of mathematics teacher preparation that seeks to address the identified gaps.
