Humanizing Disability in Mathematics Education: Forging New Paths

Humanizing Disability in Mathematics Education: Forging New Paths explores ways to improve teaching practices by emphasizing access, equity, and empowerment for students with disabilities, highlighting them as capable mathematics thinkers and doers. Drawing on the authors’ experiences and perspectives, the book advocates for a shift away from deficit views of disability toward a human rights framework that benefits all learners. It provides practical strategies, including the effective use of Individual Education Plans (IEPs) and the incorporation of students' identities and knowledge, to foster a more inclusive and meaningful mathematics education environment.
