Professor Rochelle Gutierrez will give a keynote address, "What Kind of Mathematics Do We Need Now?" at the largest annual math education conference. The combined events of COVID-19, Black Lives Matter, and climate change have opened the door for many teachers to question what is happening in the world and what is our place in it? This session supports teachers to reflect on what is considered “normal” in mathematics teaching and learning and what it will take to rehumanize mathematics. More than just rethink the ways we teach, I will engage us to reconsider mathematics itself and how it can be in the service of connecting us with each other and the natural world.
