Why Am I Supposed to Love Math?: Digital Mathematics Storytelling in Asian American Communities
Theodore Chao; Angga Hidayat; Ruth Nneoma Oliwe
North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education (45th, Reno, NV, Oct 1-4, 2023)
In this research study, we detail how Digital Mathematics Storytelling, in which youth create video stories detailing the mathematics knowledge existing within their families and communities, can actively create counter-stories to the model minority myth. Through intergenerational video storytelling in historic Asian American communities, the research team and participants used a community participatory action research and narrative inquiry framework to engage elementary and middle-school aged youth in mathematics-based storytelling that not only detailed the painful effects of the model minority myth but also showcased that mathematics identities within Asian American communities can be rich and joyful.
