“Mathematics is a very broad and multidimensional subject that requires reasoning, creativity, connection making, and interpretation of methods; it is a set of ideas that helps illuminate the world; and it is constantly changing.
Math problems should encourage and acknowledge the different ways in which people see mathematics and the different pathways they take to solve problems.
When these changes happen, students engage with math more deeply and well.”
