Leveraging Equity/Access to Create Safe Spaces for Deeper Mathematical Understanding

Research shows a correlation between the need for students to feel psychologically/emotionally safe and their achieving success. How, do we help create environments where they feel safe and increase the equity and access for ALL?

TRC researchers share their research on how to help students fully participate in the collaborative aspect of the mathematics and how it is actually enacted in the classroom. You will leave ready to implement incredibly effective ideas when you return to your classroom.
