Research
Research is at
the heart of CRMSE's mission. Although the Center
engages in grant-funded professional development
projects, teaching in the department, and service
to local, state, and national organizations and
entitles, an ongoing emphasis is attention to
curricular, assessment, and policy issues. These
issues are altered as the climate for mathematics
and science education changes, and at times CRMSE
researchers pose important questions concerning
teaching and learning that reach beyond science
and mathematics education. These questions arise
out of the ongoing conversations and interactions
with university colleagues, teachers,
administrators and policy makers.
The journals
listed in the Collaborative Group for
Research in Mathematics Education Journals site provides a look at
some of CRMSE's research foci.
The documents
included in the following link provide a
representative array of current research efforts
conducted by CRMSE faculty and graduate students:
