Grateful for a recent spotlight of my work as a Latino STEM educator in the Aug 2025 issue of "Hispanic Engineer & Information Technology" magazine. The feature article is titled "Latino Educators: Where Innovation Meets Leadership." Thx, Gale Gay, for writing the article.

You should confuse them & start using "rofl" instead... And then proceed to put up an "away message" with font using impeccable HTML code. ;)

It's the "three syllables" that had me. 🤣 This post gave me travel-buddy FOMO.

You’re looking at your 2026 Cecil Memorial Lecture speaker at Smith College!

Grateful for the opportunity to speak to young people and those who uplift them about these times of peril and hope.

Let’s get into it!

José Vilson: Good Math Education Is a ‘Civil Right’ The middle school math teacher, author, and lecturer, on holding high expectations for every child and prioritizing mathematics in the same way we do literacy.

Excellent perspective from @thejosevilson.com pushing back on community-building as a ‘soft skill’ in math learning:

“There is nothing 'soft' about trying to build community. It’s actually hard to figure out what’s going on w/ a particular student that isn’t allowing them to connect to a problem.”

Grateful for the opportunity to read an early draft of
@ilanahorn.bsky.social's first editorial as JRME Editor. She writes about math education research during precarious times near & far in the world. I always value Lani's metaphor use in her writing to make sense of complex ideas. cc: @nctm.org

Amplifying a new feature highlighting scholarship from my STEM higher education colleagues — Ebony McGee, Christopher Jett & Devin White.

Congrats, Doc!

Hi, Gina! Yes, it is published in AERA Open. Thanks so much for bringing servingness to the field. It played a foundational role in our research study. Here is the article link: doi.org/10.1177/2332...

Congrats, Jon!

list 3 things you can talk about for 3 hours with no prep

1. Music videos and MTV programming from the '90s
2. Intersectionality theory & its relevance to STEM education
3. Why Skeeter from "Muppet Bubbies" should be a muppet

You are a trooper. I only went to 1 of 3 days at the Outstide Lands Festival this year. Thanks for the text updates! 😀

My book on rural, poor and working-class college students is now available to purchase! THANK YOU to folks who supported me in this journey, the amazing students who shared their stories with me, and of course my fantastic publisher #RoutledgeBooks!

YouTube video by ¿Qué Pasa, HSIs? Disrupting Racialized Cisheteropatriarchy in Math Classrooms for Servingness

You can also learn more about TIPS research during an episode of the "¿Qué Pasa, HSIs?" podcast (@quepasahsis.bsky.social), which amplifies HSI research & practices for servingness. TIPS team members joined Dr. Garcia for a convo about disrupting intersectional oppression in math across HSIs. (5/5)

The analysis comes from a collaborative project btwn Sonoma State U. (HSI site) & Vanderbilt U. titled "Transformative Inclusion in Postsecondary STEM" (TIPS). Our research lab's website offers for more info re: TIPS & other projects on intersectionality in STEM: lab.vanderbilt.edu/prismlab/ (4/5)

We found that a racially-affirming community (a key element of campuswide servingness) was critical for Latin* Ss' equitable access to classroom participation. Building such a community, thus, was a "mechanism of instructional servingness." The figure presents a visual summary of our findings. (3/5)

Applying an adaptation of @ginaanngarcia.bsky.social's servingness model as our analytical lens (see figure), we examined journaling and interview data for Latin* Ss' perceptions of math instructional practices that limited or promoted support for their racial & intersectional identities. (2/5)
