Recent and current professional activities:
My research activities and interests are quite varied. The
LPS is a major research activity for me, but I am also involved
in teacher in-service programs and maintain an interest in
pedagogical issues, aspects of assessment, and humanistic approaches
in mathematics education. I also have a keen interest
in the history of mathematics.
