Research/Areas of Interest

A constant theme throughout my research relates to supporting middle and high school mathematics teachers as they engage students in rich mathematics. Thus far, my research has investigated teacher moves for supporting student reasoning (e.g., Ellis, Özgür, & Reiten, 2019), explored teachers’ implementation of technology-based tasks while participating in professional development (e.g., Reiten, 2021, 2020, 2018) and investigated teachers’ enacted mathematical knowledge for teaching (e..g, Troudt, Reiten, & Novak, 2020). From these three diverse but connected projects focusing on teachers, I am beginning to explore how mathematics teachers support the simultaneous development of content knowledge and language, particularly for culturally and linguistically diverse students.
