It's okay, dude. I'm pretty sure I make more mistakes in my job than you do in yours. (After all, math teachers make more obvious mistakes than any other kind of teacher.)

For #WomensHistoryMonth, I've also spotlighted at feministasiandad.com/2025/03/16/w... #HedyLamarr , one of the most famous actresses of the 1930s and '40s. A Jewish refugee, she starried in huge films and appeared on every fashion magazine. #MultiverseOfMathness #ITeachMath #MathEd

Mathematics, as my generation and previous generations learned it, was simply functional. Studying math was only about the numbers.

But I believe that if I'm going to serve my students best, I also need to introduce them to math's cultural and historical context. #MultiverseOfMathness #ITeachMath

For #BlackHistoryMonth, I introduced my students to (clockwise from upper left) Benjamin Banneker, Euphemia Haynes, Ernest Wilkins, Katherine Johnson, Gladys West, and John Urschel, all of whom are truly inspiring! #ITeachMath #MathEd #ethnomathematics #MultiverseOfMathness

Little did anyone know she was an amazing scientist and inventor - partly b/c she didn't talk about it publicly, but also b/c she ran into sexism that's strong today - the stereotype that a beautiful woman couldn't possibly also be brilliant intellectually. #MultiverseOfMathness #ITeachMad #MathEd

Teaching my calculus and pre-cal students about the context of math, including the cultural context, is part of my job. Today, on Day 2 of the 5 days of #Diwali, I introduced the famous art of #rangoli, giving them a chance to choose a pattern to color. #MathEd #ITeachMath #MultiverseOfMathness

#Thunderbolts* is quite good, the best MCU film in awhile. Fun action and humor with a deeper message that's super-relatable. Stay until the very end of the credits for a long extra scene. #MultiverseOfMathness

I'm asking students, "What is something unusual that you wish math could help you to do?" I show them this Kina Grannis MV, which uses 288,000 jellybeans and needed 2500 frames, each one taking 15-20 mins., over 2 years! www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOu0... #MultiverseOfMathness #ITeachMath #MathEd

This Monday, we honor civil rights activist Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Junior (1.15.1929 - 4.4.1968).

In 1956, only two years after Brown v. Board of Education but before much of the nation began integrating schools, he addressed a group of educators.

When you can't find posters of some of the mathematically powerful women you want to spotlight in class, you make 'em yourself.

Teaching at a Catholic school, I get to ask students questions like this, which I posed to AP Calculus BC students after our recent unit on infinite series. (The #GloryBe is part of the prayers of the rosary.) #ITeachMath #MathEd #MultiverseOfMathness

We all know what it's like to do mathy work under pressure. But imagine doing it with the pressure of saving the world!

The newest Fantastic Four trailers show actor Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, using his mathematical superpowers!

One of the things he said to them:

"But even if it had been possible to provide the Negro with equal facilities in terms of external construction and quantitative distribution, we would have still confronted inequality.

Proud of myself for learning how to use the laminating machine without any help! Okay, YouTube helped a little.
