Delaware Math Equity Annual Conference

Delaware Math Equity Conference

Cultivating and Promoting Equitable Climates of Learning

October 14th, 2022

Delaware Mathematics Coalition (DMC) and Delaware Department of Education leaders are committed to building structures and systems that eliminate barriers to success in mathematics and STEM. The October 14th Math Equity Conference engages PK20 educators, policy makers, and business leaders in meaningful learning experiences that are designed to leverage their capacity as agents of change.

Sessions leaders include highly respected local and national leaders who will engage participants in conversations and learning focused on positively influencing and impacting classroom and systems level equity challenges in STEM education.

"Every moment of the day presented an opportunity for us to reflect on equity and make adjustments to assure equal access to education, achievement, identity and power."

"All the sessions were amazing! I really appreciated the opportunity to be “surrounded” by like-intended individuals. I felt welcomed and safe."

"The biggest takeaway from the conference is that it is not just ok to know that equity/inequity exists in education, but that there are things that we (teachers, coaches, principals, etc) can do to make changes, even if they are small changes. I appreciated the varying sessions seeing equity as a large issue (district/statewide) down to the teacher view of equity in classrooms."

"See the brilliance in every child then approach teaching them as an opportunity to get them to see it in themselves. The Debra Ball video with the young man with the airplane really spoke to me. Speaking about her daughter as not wanting to be seen as anything other than a black girl - wow. Using Wakanda as a metaphor for a Utopia where no one has ever experienced being marginalized was also powerful."

"Jamila and all who put this on... this was an immense undertaking and it went so seamlessly. I am so proud to be part of this community. We have to be one of a kind here in DE!"

"This was an incredible day. I am filled with emotion as the day comes to a close. Emotional high because the content, speakers, and community inspire me. Emotional because this is such a complex and important focus for our community. Every day, every experience can help us forge new ground. We can and will and are making a difference!!"
