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.
