Nothing beats seeing your student get cool work published in the world. If you wanna see how instructors talk about quotient groups, here’s the free link. #mathedresearch #mathsky authors.elsevier.com/c/1lo462cWY-...

Math Ed research friends— it’s been a stressful moment in our field. Let’s take some joy. What has been your favorite paper you’ve published? #mathed #mathedresearch

Timing that promotion to full before all STEM Ed grants go extinct.
Dear Kate,
I am pleased to inform you that you have been granted promotion to Professor
effective September 1, 2025. This action was approved by the Board of Regents, The Texas State University System, at their May meeting.
Sincerely,

🧪 The NSF director is lying to you. Let’s fact check 7 claims from yesterday’s letter to the community, while pointing out 3 critical omissions. 🧵

The Calculus Concept Inventory has had a lot of use, but also questions about it (See Gleason et al., 2019). Glad to see a research team revisiting and developing a new measure. See this IJRUME article for more. #RUME

When I think back on the last ten years, Alex White might be the person I have learned the most from. He was a brilliant statistician and just a very good friend. Read a bit about him and find a link to the celebration of his life: www.math.txst.edu. #mathedresearch

What kind of guidance are folks getting from their institutions about NSF grants? Especially those with DEI components. #mathedresearch

NSF is now asking all grantees to cease "all non-compliant grant and award activities" which "...may include... grant activity that uses or promotes the use of DEIA principles and frameworks." Anyone want to chime in on the legality? Full statement (and future updates): new.nsf.gov/executive-or...

The math ed feed will be autogenerated with any post that has #mathedresearch, #RUME, among other terms. Post events. Share research. Ask questions using #mathedQ. (Pin the feed to see it regularly.) If you have suggestions on making the feed better (e.g. terms, ordering), message me!

What math ed research journals are repped here? I’m seeing @readprimus.bsky.social with an account, and editors posting when new issues of ESM come out. Others? #mathedresearch

Okay. Step one in that direction. I set up a “feed” for math ed research. Tag your post #mathedresearch or #rume, and it will appear there. Go go feeds, search for math ed, and pin to see this feed.

If we are gonna follow through on moving away from the _other_ social media platforms, we need ways to keep community going. Math ed friends, how to we build critical mass and conversation over here? #mathed #rume

I never used the prior iterations if this, but now I have people following me, so I feel like I should say something to the world. Let’s lift up works of new scholars. What’s a cool or interesting piece of math ed work you’ve read lately by an early scholar? #mathed #RUME
