Deaf researcher working on dismantling systemic inequities for deaf people in higher ed & transition to work. Asst professor at UT Austin & co-director, National Deaf Center on Postsecondary Outcomes. I play pickleball & read books. 🏳‍🌈
I wonder if the question should not be about whether students "learn math" but if they can build capacity to use math (and numbers, more broadly) to make decisions - quantitative reasoning, statistics, accounting, etc.

If you're not used to writing alt text for every image, I found it helpful to enable this accessibility setting on both desktop and the Bluesky mobile app. The point is to be descriptive, as it helps users who visually impaired and blind, as well as users who have muted specific words or phrases.
