Great time today giving a workshop on working w/worked examples in enVision math to DE math teachers & specialists for the School Success Center at @udelaware.bsky.social. Enjoyed developing the session w/PhD candidates @elenamsilla.bsky.social @meg-botello.bsky.social & Dr. @sarcler.bsky.social

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 🤩

At #AERA2025? Come check out the Math Methods and Motivation Lab's ongoing projects! I will be presenting some of my dissertation research at the MotSIG In-Progress Research Roundtable on Saturday 4/26 at 11:40, and would love to see you there! @aera-motsig.bsky.social.

Please amplify!

🚨 📄 JEP pub w/K. Gesuelli, @juliebooth.bsky.social & L. Young. We examine profiles of encoding of algebraic equations in middle school at start- & end-of-year. Fraction computation skill predicted SOY profile. EOY profile related to differential fraction & algebra outcomes. doi.org/10.1037/edu0...

🚨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. compass.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdfdirec...

🚨 New Pub Alert! 🚨 Check our our new JEP paper examining the Variability in math achievement growth among students w/early MLD & the role of school supports lead by Dr. Kelly-Ann Gesuelli & coauthored by my colleague @damcotto.bsky.social ! psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-...

Incredibly excited about a special issue @chrisrozek.bsky.social and I are editing on SCHOOL BELONGING with Ed Psych Review! 🎉 The first paper is out! Once published, all papers can be found here: link.springer.com/collections/... I’ll update this thread when each article gets posted ⬇️

🚨New Pub on Rough Draft Thinking in Math w/ @mandymathed.bsky.social & @meg-botello.bsky.social! We present 4 studies that show teachers incorporate Rough Draft Math into math classrooms through small, incremental changes to instruction. Check it out - it's open access! www.mdpi.com/2227-7102/14...

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!

We are almost at capacity in this starter pack! Everyone now left to be added will be added to Education Scholars Part II! If I didn’t add you to first one & you want to be added reply to to post! #EducationScholars go.bsky.app/H3QkVDR

I'm still figuring out how to use Bluesky, but sharing a paper seemed like a good time to learn! My paper with @marthaalibali.bsky.social and other amazing people is now available! srcd.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... We explored how 4-12yo US children think about inheritance!
