Mathematics Education
Description
The mathematics education group is concerned with issues of
mathematics and quantitative education, including connections with
other disciplines, across the K-20 spectrum. The areas of interest of
the group are divided into the following broad areas: curriculum,
pedagogy, outreach, and research. We are engaged in collaborative work
with colleagues from the
Neag School of Education,
Teachers for a New Era,
The Quantitative Learning Center, and the
Institute for Teaching and Learning.
Information on several collaborative research projects
may be found at the
Center for Research in Mathematical Education
(CRME).
Current and recent activities include:
- creating and reinvigorating courses in alignment with the
latest mathematics education and technological trends; and using
classrooms as laboratories to improve mathematical instruction;
- assessing the redesign of our mainstream calculus sequence
- training the TAs by providing a Math-Pedagogy course, classroom
observations, teaching consultations, and advanced pedagogy workshops;
- improving peer tutoring programs for quantitative courses;
- developing and running programs for mathematical advancement of
in-service teachers; and providing support for high school teachers at
the UConn Early College Experience Program.
