Research Focus
Mathematics Education
My research involves examining the middle- and high-school mathematics curriculum from various perspectives, including the intended, enacted, and achieved curriculum, with a particular focus on the algebra strand of the curriculum. I am currently investigating the content of the algebra strand of six commercially-available high-school textbook series. This research was originally supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation (Award #090131). Together with Denisse Thompson (University of South Florida, emeritus) and Christine Suurtamm (University of Ottawa), I am co-editing the Information Age Publishing book series, Research in Mathematics Education.
