EducationPh.D. (1997) University of Maryland, College Park Research Area: mathematics educationMy research focuses on curricular influences on the teaching and learning of middle and high school mathematics, specifically targeting the algebra strand of the curriculum. Most recently I have been investigating issues related to fidelity of implementation. Selected PublicationsA framework for analyzing differences across mathematics curricula, Journal of Mathematics Education Leadership (in press). Investigating high-school students’ reasoning strategies when they solve linear equations (with R. Marcus, J. Kahan and J. L. Miller), Journal of Mathematical Behavior 26 (2007), 115–139. Operationalizing the concept of “fidelity of implementation” for NSF-funded mathematics curricula; in Proceedings of the 2005 National Science Foundation K-12 Mathematics, Science, and Technology Curriculum Developers Conference, USA, 2005, pp. 38–43.
