Math Literacy is a Civil Right

Cambridge STEAM Initiative OST Symposium Interactive Exhibit

Math is power.

Math is everywhere.

The news we see, the impact of our votes, the candidates who win elections, the education we have access to, the jobs we get, the people we date.

Underneath all of this is a hidden layer of math that few of us see or understand.

What would be possible if we all understood how math shapes our society?

OST is a critical and powerful space where young people develop an understanding of their identity. We have the ability to shift the culture around who can “do” math to a culture where everyone feels confident in math and has the power to understand, engage with and create change in the world.

Throughout the OST Symposium, we invite you to explore our individual and collective math identity through a series of interactive installations.

Communities of Practice (COPs) provide a place where our Cambridge Out-of-School-Time (OST) professionals come together to collectively explore, challenge and test ideas and practices arising in our OST work or professional lives with the support of an experienced facilitator.
