Personal Introduction
Scholarly Interests
Explore then experiment in blending novel cognitive techniques together with mathematics procedures to simplify instruction for developmental mathematics students. Specifically, investigate methods of employing memory cues (visual, auditory, tactile) to augment comprehension, and to improve short-term and long-term retention of basic mathematics concepts. Incorporate successful approaches from peer-reviewed research journals and other publications into daily interactions with students, video lessons, lecture notes, handouts, and post the content on student Canvas courses and on my personal website, George’s Math Aid. An example student handout is Using Thumbs for Signed Number Operations (2016).
