Developing an alternative learning trajectory for rational number reasoning, geometry, and measuring based on indigenous knowledge
pp. 159-182
Abstract
Math in a Cultural Context (MCC)2 is a long-term curriculum and professional development project based on indigenous knowledge (IK) in Alaska. Collaborating with Yup"ik elders and teachers for approximately two decades, MCC has identified a powerful set of mathematical processes used in constructing everyday artifacts.
