Advising Information: My advisor is actually pictured here (Carmen Reyes)
TIME TO BE A CREEP, AND STALK SOME PEOPLE ;)
My first choice was Dr. Olga M. Kosheleva. I chose her mainly because her research involves the STEM field, integrating STEM into the curriculum. She also focuses in Mathematics, and Applied Mathematics which is what I am really interested in as well. She also physically looks like she is a minority woman that has a degree in the STEM field, bonus!
Next I chose Nicole Louie. She seemed very interesting to want to interview because her research involves how teachers define how to learn and do Mathematics in the classroom. She also is interested in the challenges, tensions, and other mishaps that teachers experience teaching in an hierarchical culture (i.e., race, class, gender, sexual orientation).
I also found Dr. Daniel A. Tillman interesting. Not only because he is a man besides the girls I have found to interview, but also because he too is also interested in Interdisciplinary STEM education, which is the main focus of my own major.
Last but not least I chose Dr. Joyce G Asing-Cashman. I chose Dr. Asing-Cashman because she focuses on technology in Mathematics Education. Which in turn brings me back to my Education class I am taking this year where we are trying to use technology to have a more effective way of teaching Mathematics.
