The School of Education at the University of California, Davis invites applications for a position at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor in the area of mathematics education. Mathematics is a core discipline in educational institutions of all kinds, and mathematical understanding is a critical component in life, education, civic participation, and career. Mathematics also serves as a powerful gatekeeper for other valued educational and career pathways. Access to high quality mathematics learning opportunities, however, is too scarce for all students, and especially so for students marginalized along dimensions of racial and ethnic background, socioeconomic resources, and regional setting. Despite tremendous advances in recent years, we still have much to learn about the nature of mathematical learning and development, how to design effective mathematics learning environments, how best prepare mathematics teachers, and to pursue all of these goals in ways that address and rectify long-standing patterns of injustice in education.
We seek a scholar committed to research that provides new and transformative understandings of and solutions to persistent challenges within K12 mathematics education.
