About Zandra

Zandra de Araujo (dearaujoz@missouri.edu)
I am the daughter of immigrants to the United States (from Brazil and Portugal), a first-generation college student, and a former public high school mathematics teacher from Orlando, Florida. I just finished my sixth year as an Assistant Professor in Mathematics Education at the University of Missouri. I study teachers’ use of curriculum (particularly with emergent bilinguals) and issues of teacher education. Currently, I have a grant to examine flipped mathematics instruction, am continuing to examine the ways in which mathematics tasks can be effectively adapted for English learners, and have co-developed a free series of videos for teachers. I teach methods courses for preservice elementary and secondary teachers, and graduate courses related to issues of equity and diversity in mathematics education. I love my husband Dan, gardening, dogs, and the great outdoors.

I’m not talking about communicating answers, I’m talking about communicating […]

180 Ideas #8: Measuring Affection

We shouldn’t just measure content knowledge, we also need to know about our students affection for (or lack thereof) mathematics.

Zinnias 2018

Just a quick picture post featuring oodles of zinnias. They’ve been so abundant this year and lovely to enjoy. Zinnias are also some of the easiest to grow flowers. You can also very easily keep the seeds to save some money for next year. This year I had almost the whole rainbow of zinnias (just […]

Gladiolus

Confession time: I love gladiolus. I couldn’t grow them in Florida; gladiolus need a bit of a freeze and they just can’t get that in the Sunshine State. When I came to Missouri I started seeing gladiolus bulbs at my local garden centers and decided to give them a whirl. They love Columbia, Missouri and […]
