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.

It can be difficult to make a connection between the student's lived experiences and the mathematics knowledge being taught.
“This is in line with Rousseau Anderson’s (2021) findings that it can be difficult to make a connection between the student’s lived experiences and the mathematics knowledge being taught.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
