This talk challenges the dominant perspective of how mathematics is learned and taught, and shows how we can create an engaging and meaningful discussion in the math classroom that incorporate Indigenous knowledge and anti-racist practices. This talk addresses a way to contextualize mathematics and bring Indigenous narratives into the subject.
Cultural Mathematician | Stavros makes math something kids look forward to as the math outreach coordinator for the University of Saskatchewan’s Department of Mathematics and Statistics.He believes that while math is universal, there is a long way to go to make it accessible to more than just some learners, so Stavros is driven to make math available to everybody. He develops hands-on math activities that incorporate aboriginal culture and anti-racist teaching practices for students and teachers in the K-12 system in Saskatoon and local reserve schools. He collaborates with teachers, elders, and researchers to develop innovative ways to teach mathematics.Stavros was born and raised in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan and moved to Saskatoon in 2007 to attend the University of Saskatchewan.He has a BSc Honors Degree in Mathematics (with a minor in Economics), an MSc Degree in Mathematics, and a MEd Degree from the College of Education, University of Saskatchewan.
