I work in mathematics education, education research and faculty development. If you are interested in having me speak or consult please get in touch.
Some recent and upcoming projects I am involved with:
- The Grading Conference, June 15–17, 2027. A virtual conference by and for new and experienced practitioners of alternative grading methodologies (e.g. Standards-Based Grading, Ungrading, etc.)
