Session Description

In April 2024, Jen and Kerryn represented MAV at the inaugural National Indigenous Mathematics Summit, attended by mathematics associations from each state, and led by the Australian Association of Mathematics Teachers (AAMT) and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Mathematics Alliance (ATSIMA). This workshop will share our learnings from two days of truth-telling, sharing, and collaborating to create a National Commitment Statement aimed at driving a cultural shift and making a systematic difference in mathematics education for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander learners. We look forward to hearing your stories, build relationships, and sharing our aspirations, including MAV's Action Plan and the steps we are taking to lead and support culturally responsive practices. Join us to contribute to this important dialogue and collective effort.

Key takeaways:
1. Sharing and relationship building: participants will engage in sharing stories and emphasising the importance of community and collaboration. 
2. Action plans and culturally responsive practices: highlight MAV’s Action Plan and actions in culturally responsive practices in mathematics education, demonstrating practical approaches and supporting delegates to create their own plans.
