Decolonizing Mathematics Education Through Storytelling: A Tool for Exploring Identity, Justice, and Community
Sat, April 26, 11:40am to 1:10pm MDT (11:40am to 1:10pm MDT), The Colorado Convention Center, Floor: Terrace Level, Bluebird Ballroom Room 2ASession Type: Structured Poster Session
Abstract
This structured poster session reimagines mathematics education through the lens of storytelling, emphasizing how telling stories together connects mathematics education to identity, justice, and community. Building on theoretical frameworks such as Funds of Knowledge, Counter Storytelling, Narrative Inquiry, and Narrative Identity, this session engages in posters that explore how storytelling revolutionizes mathematical understanding and teaching. Participants will engage in examples of storytelling in mathematics education practices and then participate in a dynamic Storycircle to experience the creation and sharing of their own math stories. Join us in pushing the boundaries of mathematics education research to learn how narratives decolonize mathematics and foster more humanizing approaches to math education.
