Emily Elrod; Joo young Park – Numeracy, 2024
The increased relevancy and importance of quantitative literacy (QL) have called for educational reform in undergraduate mathematics course offerings. However, lack of clear guidelines has led to wide variability in the content and outcomes of math courses meant to address QL. Therefore, having an expert consensus regarding content and outcomes…

Lai, Yvonne; Strayer, Jeremy F.; Ross, Andrew; Adamoah, Kingsley; Anhalt, Cynthia O.; Bonnesen, Chris; Casey, Stephanie; Kohler, Brynja; Lischka, Alyson E. – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2023
In 1908, Felix Klein suggested that to mend the discontinuity that prospective secondary teachers face, university instruction must account for teachers' needs. More than a century later, problems of discontinuity remain. Our project addresses the dilemma of discontinuity in university mathematics courses through simulating core teaching practices…

Danny Luecke – ProQuest LLC, 2023
An Indigenous research paradigm collectively described by Wilson (2008), Archibald (2008), and Kovach (2009) has yet to be applied to research in undergraduate math education, and specifically at a Tribally Controlled College/University (TCU). Research at TCUs does not require the use of an Indigenous research paradigm, however at the outset, this…
