Large-scale environmental epidemiologic studies often rely on exposure estimates based on linkage to residential addresses. This approach, however, is limited by the lack of residential histories typically available for study participants. Our objective was to evaluate the feasibility of using address data from LexisNexis (a division of RELX, Inc., Dayton, Ohio), a commercially available credit...

There is growing interest among researchers, policymakers, and practitioners in identifying teachers who are skilled at improving student outcomes beyond test scores. However, important questions remain about the validity of these teacher effect estimates. Leveraging the random assignment of teachers to classes, I find that teachers have causal effects on their students’ selfreported behavior i...

Researchers have developed a large variety of semantic models of object-oriented computations. These include object calculi as well as denotational, small-step operational, big-step operational, and reduction semantics. Some focus on pure object-oriented computation in small calculi; many others mingle the object-oriented and the procedural aspects of programming languages. In this paper, we pr...

Access to, and doing mathematics, is one of the biggest obstacles for blind students in school and at the university. Our special thematic session (STS) will present new approaches to offering blind students better access to mat, to provide new tools for doing math and offer support tools to math teachers to help them offer better instruction to blind students. In the remainder of this short pa...

Two National Research Council panels have released new reports on improving science and math education in the United States. One panel says that the best way to improve teacher education is to make it a continuum, with school districts taking more responsibility for the initial preparation of new teachers and university faculty playing a bigger role in ongoing professional development. The othe...

Despite the fact that more than one-fifth of all public school students attend rural schools, these students often lack opportunities enjoyed by their urban and suburban counterparts. Due to their small size and geographic isolation, rural schools often have difficulty attracting talented teachers and tend to offer fewer advanced math and science, AP, and dual credit classes. Likewise, rural pu...

We exploit data from middle schools in Seoul, South Korea, where students and teachers are randomly assigned to classrooms, and find that female students taught by a female versus a male teacher score higher on standardized tests compared to male students even four years later. We also find that having a female math teacher in 7th grade increases the likelihood that female students take higher-...

Math-Bridge is a European project which aims to provide facilities for bridging the mathematics gap between schools and higher education in Europe. The Open Universiteit Nederland is responsible for the interactive exercise player for Math-Bridge. This paper discusses the various forms interactions can take when solving mathematical exercises, the kind of feedback an exercise player should give...

During the summer of 2007, I participated in a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) at Illinois State University. I was one of eight undergraduates, all of whom were mathematics education majors. During my eight week experience, we worked with four in-service teachers from the Normal-Bloomington area, as well as math and math education professors from Illinois State and surrounding univ...
