Director of the Centre for New Technologies Research in Education (CeNTRE) and Reader at the Institute of Education, University of Warwick.
Dave’s research focuses on the relationship between tools and mathematical thinking, with a particular interest in the design of microworlds, task design, stochastic thinking and mathematical abstraction in context. His teaching is mostly at postgraduate level, including PGCE, MSC Mathematics Education and PhD supervision. He published regularly in international mathematics education journals and conferences.
Mark Childs
Academic Development Adviser at the Centre for Academic Practice at the University of Warwick, where he works on a range of education and professional development projects. Mark is also PhD student at the Warwick Institute of Education researching the creation of presence in online, virtual and videoconference teaching.
RCUK Academic Fellow at the London Knowledge Lab, University of London. His current research interests include mobile and ubiquitous learning, mathematics education, and theorizing the process of developing learning software environments. Niall holds PhD in Computer Science from the University of Dublin, Trinity College.
Mrs. Drs. Monica Wijers is a senior staff member of the FI. She is involved in several research projects on mathematics problem solving, learning and teaching.
For the last 10 years she coordinated the Dutch Mathematics A-lympiad, the international real world realistic mathematics team competition with open ended assignments (objective of the A-lympiad is to use 'higher order' skills in teams of students).
She is project member of the Mathematics in Context revision project (a cooperation between WCER Madison USA and the Freudenthal Institute in the Netherlands.
Mrs. Wijers works as a mathematics teacher in a secondary school in Utrecht, Netherlands. She is also an external advisor for the Dutch national committee (Cevo) in charge of central examinations.
Drs. Vincent Jonker is a junior staff member of the FI. His special expertise is the use of technology in mathematics education, both primary and secondary level.
Especially the use of internet and interactive tools, as part of the mathematics curriculum (to become a good mix with the current textbook series).
Another interest is the use of games in the context of mathematics education. Research is carried out on competitive elements, interaction, simulation and animation possibilities.
Chronis Kynigos is Associate Professor at the University of Athens and Director of the Educational Τechnology Lab. For over a decade, he has
been engaged in research on the design and infusion of technology-based innovation in schools. His work integrates new ideas for educational artifacts with the study of learning and teaching processes in the school.
Ulrika is situated at the IT University of Göteborg as a project assistant and also a PhD student within Applied IT. She has an MA in Education with a major in Applied IT from the IT University of Göteborg.
Staffan has a Ph.D. in Informatics and holds positions as Associate Professor at Göteborg University and senior research at Interactive Institute . His primary research areas include game design and ubiquitous computing.
Teacher and Phd Student at Gothenburg University, Department of Mathematics Education Cecilia Kilhamn has a masters degree in Mathematics Education from Gothenburg University, Department of Mathematics, studying teaching and learning of the concept of functions among children in primary school.
Cecilia Kilhamn has worked more than ten years as a primary school teacher and since 2003 she is teching undergraduate students in the primary school teachers program at Gothenburg University.
Research fellow with a PhD in Mathematics and several years of experience on research concerning the use of technology in mathematics education. The main strands of research concerned the theory of instruments of semiotic mediation, semiotics in education, integration between mathematics educational theories, and the use of microworlds and lego robots in mathematics education.
