Does Everything Have to be Gay? Queer Pedagogy in the Undergraduate STEM Classroom
Page: 945
Queer pedagogy has been underutilized in mathematics learning contexts, particularly at the undergraduate level, despite offering unique perspectives on gender, sexuality, knowledge, and normalcy that are valuable for scientific inquiry and which support queer students in STEM. In this paper I discuss queer pedagogy, present practical examples of its implementation in STEM courses at the undergraduate level and argue for its necessity as a tool for instruction.
