With a vision of achieving 21st Century skills and productive, meaningful mathematics learning for all students of eastern North Carolina, ECU Mathematics Education launched its first ever graduate school cohort of high school mathematics teachers. The ECU Mathematics Education vision is that great mathematics learning can be accomplished when ECU faculty, teacher candidates, and eastern North Carolina teachers of mathematics work together in rich mathematics teaching communities. This fall, teachers and ECU faculty Dr. Maureen Grady and Dr. Charity Cayton are engaged in the study of the research literature, policies, and best practices for high school mathematics instruction. During the past summer the teachers completed two graduate courses in mathematics with Dr. Chris Jantzen and Dr. Zach Robinson. To commit to the study of mathematics and mathematics education while engaged in the current challenges of teaching high school mathematics is demanding. ECU Mathematics Education is very proud of the 30 teachers who are building their careers and expanding their options with ECU’s MAED in Mathematics Education.
