The Webinars Series invite educators to re-imagine mathematics education through a culturally responsive lens.
Each session offers space to explore and reflect on how mathematics lives in connection with place and land, Indigenous Storywork, social and ecological justice, and holistic approaches to assessment.
Reimagining Mathematics Education
In recognition of the responsibility to make mathematics education more relational, land-based, and connected to diverse ways of knowing, we launched Re-imagining Mathematics Education, a four-part series inviting educators to rethink how math is taught, learned, and experienced.
Session 1: Teaching and Learning Math through Place/Land (November 11, 2021)
Session 2: Indigenous Storywork and Mathematics (November 24, 2021)
Session 3: Teaching Mathematics for Social Justice (January 19, 2022)
Session 4: Culturally Responsive Mathematics Assessment (March 2, 2022)
Culturally Responsive Mathematics Assessment – Series
In this series, we explored the nature of culturally responsive mathematics education through connections to land, story, community and mathematics. We looked to nature and Indigenous perspectives to conceptualize learning that includes cycles of feedback (with self, others, environment, and materials) and discussed approaches and principles for culturally responsive math assessment.
Session 1: Culturally Responsive Math Education (November 2, 2022)
Session 2: Looking to Nature: Math Education Assessment as Cycles of Feedback (January 25, 2023)
Session 3: Practicing Culturally Responsive Math Assessment (February 22, 2023)

Centering Indigenous Pedagogies in Math Education – Series
In this series, leading scholars and educators explored strategies for centering Indigenous pedagogies in mathematics education. Sessions focused on classroom teachers’ examples, ideas, and questions on Indigenous pedagogies, such as Indigenous Storywork, Teaching Mathematics with/from Place and Land, and Culturally Responsive Mathematics Education and Assessment Practices.
Session 1: Mathematical Moments of Becoming Indigenous Storywork Ready (November 7, 2023)
Session 2: The Power of Teaching and Learning Mathematics through Land and Place (January 23, 2024)
Session 3: Culturally Responsive Mathematics Education across Contexts (February 27, 2024)
Session 4: Oral and Experiential Stories as Indigenous Pedagogies for Mathematical Flourishing (April 9, 2024)

Centering Indigenous Pedagogies in Math Education: Assessment – Series
In this series, speakers explored Assessment as Ecosystems, Storywork, and Pedagogy, viewing assessment as a living and relational practice that nurtures learners and communities. Through stories from nature and classroom projects, they invited educators to reimagine assessment as interconnected, holistic, and responsive.
Session 1: Assessment as Ecosystems, Pedagogy, and Storywork (January 22, 2025)
Session 2: Assessment as Ecosystems (February 26, 2025)
Session 3: Assessment as Indigenous Storywork (April 16, 2025)
