Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we chat with Dr. Lisa Lunney Borden about equity,  culture, & identity  in  mathematics.  We also dive into mathematical understanding through models & manipulatives while focusing on the importance of beginning with a verb based approach so that we are creating opportunities for all of our students to learn. Lisa is a local mathematics education hero, a professor of mathematics education at St. Francis Xavier University here in Nova Scotia & holds the John Jerome Paul Chair for Equity in Mathematics Education.   Lisa's experience of teaching grades 7 through 12 mathematics in a Mi'kmaw community has shaped how she thinks about teaching & learning mathematics. Lisa shares her story as a mathematics teacher & learner and her commitment to research & outreach that focuses on decolonizing mathematics education through culturally based practices and experiences that are rooted in Indigenous language and knowledge systems.  Show NotesFlorence Glanfield TwitterDawn Wiseman TwitterDavid Wagner WebsiteShow Me Your Math Websitehttp://showmeyourmath.ca/outreach/Connecting Math to our Lives & CommunityDianne's Quill Box on DesmosThree and a Hand VideoTraditional Nova Scotia QuillworkThe Bucket of Zero Verbification of MathematicsMathigon PolypadPolypad: Jumps ofPolypad: Rows of SquaresPolypad: Sets of Ten FramesPolypad: Lengths of RodsPolypad: Making RectanglesPolypad: Making SetsPolypad: Break the Train Polypad: 3-Digit Targetshttps://mathigon.org/tasksJohn Mason WebsiteGloria Ladson-BillingDanny Martin VideoMarie BattisteDwayne DonaldAdding to the Equation: Equity in Mathematics Resources
