NCTM’s Statement on Using Mathematics for Divisiveness

On April 19, 2022, NCTM published the
following statement on using
mathematics for divisiveness:

Students, teachers, and schools lose whenever mathematics is used for political gain and divisiveness. Access to equitable mathematics learning, coupled with rigorous and engaging instruction that is supportive, focuses on understanding, and builds on students' strengths, is and will remain a critical goal for high-quality mathematics teaching and learning and the supporting curricula. NCTM will always stay the course for equity for all students and work collaboratively with our affiliates to advocate against anything that disproportionately distracts from this goal or hurts the most vulnerable populations within our schools. https://www.nctm.org/News-and-Calendar/News/NCTM-News-Releases/Statement-on-Using- Mathematics-for-Divisiveness/

A Message from NCTM’s president, Trena Wilkerson

In her recent President’s message, NCTM President, Trena Wilkerson, discussed the importance of bringing joy to the teaching and learning of mathematics, along with the benefits and why it is important.
