Selfie of Alberto Roca in white guayabera shirt. He is standing next to poster of LatinxInBME poster that has logo of big black "x" with "Latin" and "in BME" (in red font) each in 2 quadrants of "x" shape while remaining 2 quadrants are filled with flags from North, Central, and South American countries. Same geographic continents are pictured behind logo as background. Poster also has text "A community of Latinx biomedical engineers that connect through scholarship and friendship".

Happily attended #LatinxInBME Symposium. Has been amazing seeing this @latinxinbme.bsky.social community grow under leadership of @brianaguado.bsky.social & @anamaporras.bsky.social. This 1-day event occurs before annual BMES meeting & is inclusive welcoming all such this biochemist 😀. #LatinskySTEM

No matter how hard I try, I cannot avoid the nonsense.

But I can choose where I put my energy—into meaningful conversations, real connections, and actions that create change.

The noise is loud, but purpose is louder!

🔟 The SMPs are not just math skills; they are access points to deep learning. When we center student thinking, we open doors for all learners, not just those who already see themselves as “math people.”

What experiences in mathematics have sparked joy for you, and how can you share those with others, with your students?

#MathEquity #iTeachMath #LatinSkySTEM #EduSky #BluSky

educators can create math experiences that reflect this peace by ensuring that mathematics is taught in a way that values collaboration, celebrates diverse perspectives, and nurtures every student’s sense of belonging.

What do you think?

Math can be used to address inequities and create a more just world. By using math to explore issues like resource distribution, climate change, or economic disparities, we can work toward peace by seeking fairness and equity.

Graphic depicting the Equity Transformation Cycle from Street Data by Safir and Dugan. At the center is ‘Street Data,’ surrounded by four quadrants: ‘Listen’ (Mindset of Radical Inclusion), ‘Uncover’ (Mindset of Curiosity), ‘Reimagine’ (Mindset of Creativity), and ‘Move’ (Mindset of Courage). The cycle emphasizes iterative reflection and action, connecting these mindsets as a framework for equity-focused transformation.

My favorite cycle of inquiry
I’m working on transitioning the PDSA cycle to this cycle of inquiry and continuous improvement (Safir&Dugal, Street Data)

SMARTIE Goals Worksheet - The Management Center A worksheet to help you embed equity and inclusion into your SMART goals, from the organization that popularized the SMARTIE approach.

I kid you not - when I hear “SMART goals” my brain shuts down and my emotions get agitated.

I’ve found an alternative -it helps with my discomfort - SMARTIE goals

Each “aha moment” in math reinforces the idea that progress is achievable, even when the path forward isn’t immediately clear, hopeful belief that we can overcome.
