Keynote Address

"Inviting Students to Mathematics through Reciprocity and Relationship"
In this talk, I use the ideas of reciprocity and relationship to characterize how we can be together with our students when we are learning, studying and teaching mathematics. Through examples from classrooms, I invite us to think about these questions: How can stories and storytelling within our communities provide a context for meaning-making for children, mathematical modeling, analyzing structure, and engaging in argumentation? How can we more deeply consider the importance of making decisions that are specific to children’s community and their lives as they grow as mathematicians and make meaning of their world?
