CEC recently hosted a Community Review for our Learning Maps for Math in a Cultural Context (LM-MCC) project, bringing together Elders, Alaska Native educators, project partners, and community members! Led by CEC in partnership with the University of Kansas (KU), the project builds on culturally grounded math resources developed over 20 years ago by Dr. Jerry Lipka, Elders, and educators from Southwest and Western Alaska. Together, we're working to connect these resources with Alaska's math standards and make them more useful for today's classrooms. Quyana to everyone who shared their knowledge, experiences, and feedback! Your contributions help strengthen culturally grounded education for future generations. #CalistaEducationAndCulture #MathInACulturalContext #AlaskaNativeEducation #LearningThroughCulture
