Emilie Hancock

Associate Professor

Emilie Hancock

My research and teaching center around preparing future mathematics teachers and mathematicians, with a focus on inquiry-based pedagogies.

My current research interests include networked pedagogical reform in K-12 and undergraduate STEM education spaces, centered on the use of improvement science methods to facilitate educator reflective practice.
