Jennifer Suh is a Professor in the Graduate School of Education, College of Education and Human Development, George Mason University. Dr. Suh teaches mathematics methods courses in the Elementary Education Program and mathematics leadership courses for the Mathematics Specialist Masters and Ph.D Programs.  She directs the Center for Outreach in Mathematics Professional Learning and Educational Technology, COMPLETE, a joint center between the College of Education and the College of Science. Her research focuses on: Implementing Lesson Study to develop pedagogical mathematics knowledge across the continuum from pre-service teachers to mathematics teacher leaders; Building children”s development of mathematical meaning through math modeling and representational fluency; Promoting equitable access to 21st century skills through problem-based learning encouraging creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration for diverse student populations. Through formal andinformal educational outreach, Dr. Suh enjoys working with schools, communities teachers and parents to show how math can be useful in solving real world problems and be enjoyable to teach and learn. Megan H. Wickstrom is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences, College of Letters and Science, Montana State University. Dr. Wickstrom teaches mathematics content and methods courses for pre-service and in-service K-12 teachers across undergraduate, masters, and Ph.D. programs. Her research focuses on: the teaching and learning of mathematical modeling in K-16 classrooms; the teaching and learning of geometry and measurement in K-16 classrooms; pre-service teacher preparation; and integration of research into practice. Dr. Wickstrom enjoys working alongside teachers to develop tasks that engage students in rich mathematical thinking and discussion.
