Publications

  • Culturally Relevant Geometry

    Mathematics Science Technology Teaching Preparation Academy Conference

    Pedagogy that recognizes differences in the way that students learn, while providing cultural relevance for students, can aid in addressing these issues. In response to the problem, this project was done to investigate the effectiveness of using cultural relevance in the study of transformations in geometry at a small university in south Texas, near the U.S. – Mexico border.
