Adrian Mim | Math Education, Teaching Styles, Diversity in STEM, Calculus Project

Welcome back to the Learning Can’t Wait podcast!  Today, host Hayley Spira-Bauer speaks with Dr. Adrian Mim, Founder and CEO of The Calculus Project.  Listen as Adrian explains how curricula is built around white middle class, and how we can work to close math achievement gaps by promoting and practicing inclusivity.  Dr. Mim describes why it is important for students to learn about the mathematical contributions of people of color, and shares some of the philosophy behind The Calculus Project.

Finally, Adrian answers the age-old question of what parents can do when they don’t understand their kids’ math homework.
