I did math at Harvey Mudd College and now I do research in math education at UCLA!

@JUST_Equations Ah, I hear this is a good one.

Can't wait to read this behemoth of a handbook by Bharath Sriraman @SpringerRef !!

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

@AyanBandyop123 You're cute

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

@maanow None other than this behemoth of a book, written by the great Jacques Hadamard

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

@PamelaBurdman @maanow Yes!!!!!

@akilbello Where can we read this?

[Just Equations @JUST_Equations]

Which math courses offer the best #highered opportunities? @PamBurdman analyzes the changing landscape of undergraduate #math requirements, including a number of innovative courses that aren't calculus.

@JUST_Equations Honestly, I might be biased, but this is a landmark paper 👍🏼

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

@RanthonyEdmonds Sending good vibes!

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

The caffeine was on overdrive!

[Just Equations @JUST_Equations]

Kicking off our "Staying the Course" session, @AlmoraRios explains student paths to Calculus and our research finding lengthy prerequisite sequences across the @calstate.

One campus had a pathway that required up to *four* semesters of prereqs!

@RanthonyEdmonds Your handwriting is amazing!!!!

[Raymond Johnson @MathEdnet]

I don't remember where I heard this, but someone explained Twitter as the place where you can say "I like pancakes" and strangers reply, "Why do you hate waffles?"

Examples: Way too many #mathed conversations about instruction, course options, ed policy, etc...

[Just Equations @JUST_Equations]

How does math #anxiety interfere with learning, and how it may intersect with racial and gender biases?

We're honored to have these experts explore how #instruction can be designed in ways that foster #math learning *and* math well-being.

Anyone know of any POC-supportive STEM professors at or around College of the Redwoods? Trying to connect a student to some resources...

[Just Equations @JUST_Equations]

Read about our new report at @insidehighered!

"A new report suggests calculus prerequisite sequences across the CSU system are too lengthy and could pose a barrier to students who need to complete calculus as a stepping-stone to earning STEM degrees." https://t.co/EJDxYY5DQt

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

Woot woot! My new report's out! Come read it y'all :)

[Just Equations @JUST_Equations]

JUST RELEASED: Just Equations is proud to announce our new report, "Staying the Course: Examining College Students’ Paths to Calculus."

Authors @AlmoraRios & @PamelaBurdman investigate @calstate's calculus prerequisite sequences.

I love this picture of Robert Hass and @brendalhillman w/ my students @CMCnews. They are such marvelous poets and mentors.

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

@ColeHenri @brendalhillman @CMCnews That's me!

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

@MasonAcevedo5 I think this new year I'm taking up meditation🧘‍♂️

[Marcelo Almora Rios @AlmoraRios]

@MasonAcevedo5 5% of the time!! But I wouldn't have it any other way :)
