Babies Overboard! The Complexities of Incorporating Culturally Relevant Teaching into Mathematics Instruction.
Matthews, Lou Edward
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v53 n1 p61-82 2003
Explores the teaching of four elementary teachers as they incorporated a model of culturally relevant teaching into their mathematics instruction. Examines how teachers sought to: (1) foster critical mathematical thinking and critical consciousness; (2) build on informal mathematical and cultural knowledge; and (3) utilize empowerment orientations toward students' culture and experience.
