solving world problems is a pun on the way that word problems in math often have little to do with the real world.
Irrelevant math contexts and the focus on a single correct solution or method often marginalize students.
This site provides resources and information for math teachers, teacher educators, parents, and students to problematize what matters in mathematics education. Making math more meaningful can foster equity by including more students in authentic & challenging mathematical work. And connecting math to important real world problems can spark conversations about social justice issues in schools and communities.
