Prospective Teachers' Design Decisions, Rationales, and Resources

Mathematics education doctoral student Denish Akuom recently presented original research at the American Educational Research Association national conference. His presentation was titled Prospective Teachers’ Design Decisions, Rationales, and Resources: Re/claiming Teacher Agency through Mathematical Making. This research project details how prospective teachers learn to teach math as they Make new manipulatives, and how the knowledge they embed in their designs gets leveraged in their teaching. Denish presented alongside faculty member Dr. Steven Greenstein.

Congratulations, Denish!
