Title: Mind the Microaggressions in Math

Abstract: Math is for everyone, but some people face inequities or barriers that can negatively impact their interest, belonging and success in mathematical fields. In this interactive workshop, we will discuss a case study about unfair grading. This will help us understand terms such as microaggressions, stereotype threat, implicit bias, intersectionality... This is a first step towards helping to promote a positive climate for all.
