Our next reading is a short piece I published on the history of math education over the past 100 years in North America.
Battleground Schools: Mathematics education
It's from a very interesting book/ encyclopedia called Battleground Schools which is full of interesting short articles on contested areas of education in the past century -- highly recommended! Quite a few UBC Education profs have contributed to this two volume set, so you may find writing by some of your other instructors here too.
For this blog response, please comment on the fraught history of mathematics education in North America and the ways that you think this might affect your own situation as a math teacher.
