It is difficult to find joy in our work when science is under attack. Today I led a professional learning session for math teachers based on my research w/ @elenamsilla.bsky.social. I also presented stellar grad students (including @sarcler.bsky.social) w/awards for their research. Joy unlocked 🤩

🚨New paper! We provide a balanced approach to discussing context‐level disadvantage and individual‐level agency (a focus of strength‐based research). This approach allows for a broader–a holistic–perspective on existing inequality research.

Hello BlueSky ed researchers 👋 I research math learning and motivation, like how middle-schoolers feel and experience the math classroom and how their classroom experiences relate to their mathematical thinking. I'm a doctoral student at Delaware & proud #AcaMama. Excited to connect with you all!
