I was so excited to join Dr. Dustin Belt (MU) and Dr. Paul Plummer (UCM) on a panel today at the 2025 Missouri Section Meeting of MAA at SLU! We had a great discussion about CORE42, placement, corequisites, and math pathways with Missouri mathematics faculty. #MAA2025 #MathEducation #MathPathways

I was asked to create an image using AI to share my thoughts on using AI in college. I’m excited about the possibilities, but also, I can’t help but worry that it might make some students skip the hard work of thinking and problem-solving. Here's what I came up with #AI #edusky

It's disappointing that the weather had to cancel Eagle Summit. A large group of faculty spent nearly a year and many hours planning. We learned a lot, and I'm looking forward to an amazing time next year!

This cartoon by @adamsacks.bsky.social is a reflection of how math education has veered off course. I regularly meet college students interested in fields like engineering, data science, AI, and research, but they lack the foundational math needed to pursue these paths. #edusky #math

Day 7 of #ResearchAdvent: Counted Out examines the state of math education in America & its impact on democracy. As the Supreme Court dismisses cases due to math illiteracy & corporations use algorithms to manipulate, math becomes a critical defense & essential tool for informed citizenship. #math

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of joining a panel at Alamo Drafthouse to discuss the documentary, #CountedOut. Alongside Drs. Sullivan and Shavers from Missouri State University & two other panelists, we explored ways to make math education more inclusive & spark curiosity.
