Curriculum Vitae

Employment

  • I am a SUNY Geneseo alumni with a degree in Mathematics with Secondary Education Certification, followed by a Masters in Mathematics Education. I taught high school and middle school until my children were born, at which time I began part-time work teaching night classes at Monroe Community College. I joined the math department at SUNY Geneseo in January 2007 where my duties include: work with the pre-service math teacher candidates, supervise student teachers during their semester-long field experience, teach Math 140 &141 (Math Concepts for Elementary Ed), Math 213,221,222 (Calculus I & II), Math 237 (Discrete Math), and Math 160 (Elements of Chance).

Classes

  • MATH 140: Math Concepts for Elem Educ I

    This course is intended for education majors and is designed to provide a mathematical treatment of the fundamental concepts of arithmetic, algebra, and number theory as they relate to the elementary school mathematics curriculum.

  • MATH 160: Media Statistics

    This course will help students learn how to think about statistics and probability, how to identify the tools needed to study a particular problem and how to read and critically evaluate quantitative information presented in the media. The course format involves extensive reading and discussion of newspaper and journal articles, computer activities, writing assignments, and student projects.

  • MATH 221: Calculus I

    Topics studied are limits and continuity; derivatives and antiderivatives of the algebraic, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, and inverse functions; the definite integral; and the fundamental theorem of the calculus.
