UW-Madison’s Nicole Louie is receiving the Early Career Publication Award from the American Educational Research Association’s (AERA) Research in Mathematics Education Special Interest Group (SIG).
Louie, an assistant professor with the School of Education’s Department of Curriculum and Instruction, is being honored for her 2018 paper, “Culture and ideology in mathematics teacher noticing,” published in the journal Educational Studies in Mathematics.
Louie will be honored during the SIG’s business meeting that takes place during AERA’s 2020 Annual Meeting in San Francisco April 17-21.
Her paper, which responds to literature on mathematics teacher noticing, argues that it’s positioning misses the cultural and ideological dimensions of what and how teachers notice. In one case identified, Louie examines the way one algebra teacher acknowledges and responds to the mathematical strengths of students from marginalized groups.
