I am Professor of mathematics education at the University of Stavanger, Norway. I am particularly interested in the professional work of teaching mathematics.
I had a lot of fun writing this review of research on mathematical knowledge for teaching in Africa (https://t.co/KgJRYJtLzU) and making the documentation available on Github (https://t.co/e2ke3j76Fy) #openscience#emacs#matheducation
For everyone interested in research on teacher education and development, please consider @AJOTED_journal as a potential outlet for your research! I'm on the editorial board, and we now have an open call for papers.
Where many consider knowledge as something teachers hold and use, Mercy Kazima considers it in relation to the demands of the work of teaching mathematics (like @deborah_ball and others). #ICME14
I enjoyed @deborah_ball ‘s lecture at #ICME this morning. Interesting to see how her powerful ideas about the work of teaching and discretionary spaces are evolving!
We are devastated to report the death of David K. Cohen, a founding member of the Albert Shanker Institute’s board of directors, a gifted teacher, and a brilliant scholar. https://t.co/BFaTkuIt3R
BIG NEWS!
I'm offering FREE weekly online maths masterclasses to increase the diversity & number of excellent mathematicians in the UK. Parents & Teachers, nominate kids now. Let's turn good mathematicians into great ones. Nominate here: https://t.co/5airorQj8S

I really appreciated the keynote by @deborah_ball#TWSummerInstitute To quote some of her closing words: "It's collective work. It's ongoing work. It's hard work!" So true!
New episode of the #MathEd podcast -- Dr. Jaime Diamond from @UGAMathSciEd discusses her research on teachers' strategies for supporting transfer-of-learning. Do they approach it as an issue of content, practices, or dispositions? https://t.co/mpMqQSeTTT
In preparation for the conference, we kindly ask you to send questions about ERME research, questions about ERME itself, and memories on ERME (anecdotes, narratives, pictures …). Please do this by using Twitter and end your tweet with #cerme11panel. (2/3)
Looking forward to last day (for me) of the EML 2018 with @deborah_ball. What a wonderful opportunity to study, discuss and think carefully about math teaching!
