 Guest Speakers

Brian Lawler, Associate Professor, Kennesaw State University - During his 25+ year career as a mathematics educator, Dr. Lawler has supported teachers, schools, and districts to de-track mathematics instruction and transform teaching practices. He is a contributing author to the internationally acclaimed high school mathematics curriculum Interactive Mathematics Program (IMP).

Nicole Louie, Assistant Professor, University of Wisconsin-Madison - Nicole Louie studies how people define intelligence and who is allowed to be seen as "smart." She is especially interested in teachers’ efforts to challenge narrow, exclusionary discourses of intelligence, and to support students to relate to one another as intellectual equals. Her research is fueled by her experiences as a teacher and learner in the San Francisco Bay Area, El Paso, and Chicago. She is a co-editor of Mathematics for Equity: A Framework for Successful Practice

Bryan Meyer, Escondido School District - Bryan Meyer is a former high school math teacher currently serving as a Teacher on Special Assignment in the Escondido School District in Escondido, CA whose detracking efforts have been highlighted in an NCTM Catalizing Change Case Study. Bryan is the author of Mathematics and/of Ourselves.
