Is My Subgroup Normal? How Math Communities Differand Why it Matters (Sinclair, Google)
Mathematics isnt done in a void: its done by groups of people. Those groups have different norms and values, which affect both who wants to engage in math and the mathematics itself being done. When thinking about diversity and inclusion, explicitly examining norms within our communities can get us a long way. Through a Thomas […]
