O autorze

Tesha Sengupta-Irving is Assistant Professor of the Learning Sciences in the Graduate School of Education at the University of California, Berkeley, USA. Her research explores the sociocultural and political dimensions of teaching and learning that resist the stratifying power of mathematics as a project of race, gender, and class in schools.

Maxine McKinney de Royston is Assistant Professor in the Department of Curriculum & Instruction at the University of Wisconsin—Madison, USA. Her research examines the multidimensional, relational, and politicized nature of teaching and learning, namely how schools and mathematics and science classrooms operate as racialized learning spaces.
