Creating an Inclusive Mathematics Classroom and Department

I began my action plan for improving the culture and climate in mathematics many years ago by incorporating a research experience for students directly into the classroom. I will begin my talk by describing this program and its impact on students. After attending the Aligning Actions at Crossroads Workshop at the 2022 AWM Research Symposium, my colleagues [Read More...]

From this [Read More...]
