    Date: Apr 27, 2012
    Event: 2012 Annual Meeting Philadelphia
    Speaker: Anita Bright

    Is mathematics neutral? What other lessons, aside from math, do the materials we offer students contain? What values do the problems we choose and the textbooks we use imply and transmit? Analyze textbooks, trade books, and standards and discuss whether these match the values we espouse. Receive a detailed electronic handout.
