A Joint Position Statement Between the Association of State Supervisors of Mathematics (ASSM) and the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE)
The Association of State Supervisors of Mathematics (ASSM) and the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE) are bringing forth this statement to highlight the need for educators to adopt asset-based practices and perspectives toward mathematics teaching and learning. Asset-based perspectives are essential to fostering positive mathematical identities and students' mathematics learning. To realize this goal, it is critical that teacher educators and state supervisors of mathematics better understand asset-based perspectives to support shifts toward more student-centered teaching and help all students be successful in mathematics.
