Although Spanish law obligates the integration of a gender perspective in university teaching, this does not happen in reality and much less in math subjects. We provide guidelines for reviewing math courses from a gender perspective. In particular, we focus on aspects such as: the adequate management of the classroom, the visibility of the contributions of women, the use of an inclusive language, the methodology through active teaching, the contents, the work in values by humanizing the problems, the use of the computer, an appropriate and diverse evaluation and, above all, interpersonal relationships, where empathy and breaking with stereotypes and implicit biases are fundamental. We show examples in some subjects, especially statistics in the field of Engineering and Health degrees. Results based on student participation in activities and their opinion are very satisfactory. Furthermore, feedback obtained after a course about math coeducation to other teachers is also very promising.

I show how gender perspective can be implemented in mathematics teaching at university. The following aspects are taken into account: 1) an adequate management of the classroom (promoting an equal participation); 2) the visibility of the contributions of women and other minorized groups in these areas (with different activities, ranging from quotes to escape rooms); 3) the use of inclusive language (in all levels, oral, written, visual, etc.); 4) the methodology through active teaching (learning by doing mathematics, working in cooperative groups, by projects, etc., instead of competitiveness and individualism); 5) the contents (for example, in statistics, showing the importance of an adequate sampling, the appropriate questions in order to see all the visions, i.e. to show the importance of taking into account gender in engineering or other fields through data); 6) the work in values by humanizing the problems (some math activities can be about discrimination, climate change, etc., i.e. math for social justice); 7) the use of the computer; 8) an appropriate evaluation (assessment should be diverse to take into account the diversity of students, but we also have to take into account some implicit biases in evaluation); and, above all, 9) interpersonal relationships, where empathy is essential as well as breaking with stereotypes and implicit biases. We also show how to integrate gender perspective into math research in applied math: in the content, but also as regards to the equal opportunities in a field with few women and minority groups, in pure math.

Jacobs points out the fact that culture and socioeconomic circumstances affect the mathematics education of individuals. Accordingly, girls’ mathematics achievement shows some variations across different countries. Unlike popular misconceptions about the roles of males and females in Turkish society, in this commentary we will show that the majority of studies conducted in Turkey have found no significant mean difference between mathematics achievement of boys and girls especially in primary and high schools. Hence, we do not think we need to offer an alternate pedagogy for girls. We briefly point out some points of convergences and divergences with the Jacobs’ article. And then, we give some background information on Turkish education. Subsequently, we discuss the literature related to mathematics achievement and gender in Turkey. The discussion includes the results of TIMMS, national exams in Turkey in addition to articles, theses and dissertations.
