The Revitalizing Algebra Project worked with teachers to improve the success rates of students, particularly those from underrepresented populations in math and science. The project worked in three areas: assumptions about race, gender, and culture and how those assumptions affect the classroom; using rich mathematical problems to teach the content of algebra; and key pedagogical issues for the teaching of algebra, Participants in the workshop will explore one activity from each area in depth and will learn about other activites and the evaluation results of the project.
