Students of color and low-income students are still disproportionately left out of the advanced math classes that can boost their chances of admission to certain colleges. @PamelaBurdman and Ed Trust-West's Rachel Ruffalo examine solutions.

I teamed up with Rachel Ruffalo @EdTrustWest to call for California to make math placement more equitable and evidence based.

@ThankUBayesGod @Melodiekbaker I do not think I have ever advocated for replacing Algebra 2 with discrete math. This seems to be another straw man claim. I have Norm Matloff blocked.

@mathillustrated @minilek @CollegeOpp @JUST_Equations @Melodiekbaker More good work by Calculus Project. And good to see @JUST_Equations cited. I don’t know of schools using new courses (e.g. data science) to “nix” calculus. The point is to expand, not eliminate, options.

Great discussion about @CountedOutDoc featuring ⁦@benblumsmith⁩, ⁦@IsmarVolic⁩; and filmmaker ⁦@VickiAbeles⁩! Thank you @kalw for featuring math in your Bay Area Votes series.

Compelling read about #math identity and tracking from @JUST_Equations’ own @Melodiekbaker!

In middle school, being tracked into lower-level courses contradicted my math identity and eroded my confidence: https://t.co/tUeM4oGnna via @Melodiekbaker @JUST_Equations for @hechingerreport

@dtkung @tpsemath Congrats!

Here's why your college probably should not treat calculus as a de facto requirement for admission, especially when many of your majors do not have math requirements.

Our team mourns the loss of Chris Edley Jr., former @UCBerkeley law school dean, who was instrumental in launching Just Equations. An undergrad math major, Chris knew math is central to ed equity. A short thread to celebrate his legacy in civil rights and math education: 1/6

[Berkeley School of Education @Berkeley_Educ]

Rest in power Chris Edley. He served as @UCBerkeley interim School of Education Dean 2021-23. He encouraged us everyday to educate like democracy depends on it.

@TracyZager It depends on the college and the student. The “rejectives” do accept some students wo calc, but not many. Check out our report “Calculating the Odds.” Counselors said Ss who take stats or other courses probably should explain why in their applications.

Honored to be moderating this fantastic group of experts! Looking forward to discussing how math transfer issues can be improved (solved?) to make higher ed success more equitable.
