The Honoring Equity and Access in Mathematics Instruction (HEAR-MI) project is a four-year study that aims to support instructional coaches & math teachers in enacting more equitable mathematics instruction through the use of EAR-MI rubric based coaching cycles grounded in video recordings of classroom instruction.

This position is an annual re-appointment. Continuation of employment is contingent upon continuation of grant funding and successful job performance.

The successful candidate will be expected to:

  • Engage in educational research related to equity in STEM education
  • Become lead author on two or more peer-reviewed papers, co-author on additional work

  • Contribute and support development of annual progress reports for NSF
  • Assist with data cleaning and organization leading up to analysis
  • Lead qualitative data analysis tasks, including thematic analysis, qualitative coding of data (e.g. interview and video data), literature reviews, etc.
