I have two years teaching experience in the elementary
school and thirteen years in middle/high schools for
a total of fifteen years. Twelve of these years were
in Canadian schools and three in Zimbabwe schools.
Also, seven years of this experience was in private
schools and the rest in public schools. In post-secondary
teaching, I have over sixteen years of experience,
five of which were in a teachers’ college in
Zimbabwe. Most of my teaching experience involved
mathematics.
My research interests have revolved primarily around
misconceptions in mathematics, especially in the area
of probability. I have published a number of papers
on this topic. I have also researched and written
on Cognitively Guided Instruction, the integration
of literature and mathematics, and mathematics teaching
in diverse cultures. My research has been conducted
in Canada, Zimbabwe, and the USA.
