Abstract
This paper describes how a suite of digital technologies can support the potential of a critical, place-based perspective in mathematics. The poster focuses on a curriculum that uses technologies to investigate pawnshops, with an emphasis on mathematical understanding, spatial/quantitative, subject/cultural, and social justice dimensions. The technologies include interactive digital maps, mobile data collection, and synthesis tools. The poster describes the role of these technologies, as well as affordances and challenges.
