In this episode, hosts Karen Riley Jeffers and Abel Maestas welcome the authors from the winter NCSM Journal of Mathematics Education Leadership (JMEL). These authors, who are all members of higher education, represent a wealth of knowledge ranging from work with students, student teachers, teachers, and coaches. In this episode each author group shares how their work connects to each other and how they all contribute to supporting belonging in math education. “Rough drafting” and living in “rough draft mode” is a significant theme arising from this discussion. Listen to find out what this means, how it applies to all of our work, and how the work of these three author groups center belonging and compliment each other. #NCSMBold
