Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Robert Moses, whose life traces the best aspects of the civil rights movement, always grasped the relationship of organizing for justice and good teaching. This accessible book addresses much more than math education, but equity, justice, and democracy-and shows how they fit together quite nicely. It's a book for both theoreticians and practitioners, demonstrating the unity of ideas and social practice in a classroom where the goal is to struggle for what is true. Robert Moses' main message is, I think, "What you do counts." Makes double good sense in a math classroom.
