Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Shannon Dingman's research focuses on understanding and conceptualizing curricular reasoning within mathematics education. This work investigates how mathematics teachers make decisions about curriculum, aiming to develop frameworks for examining these processes. Publications explore the nature of "common" elements in middle grade mathematics and analyze official versus intended curricula. Dingman also contributes to the development of computational science education through the creation of new undergraduate courses.

Dingman leads a research group and has received significant federal funding for this work. A National Science Foundation (NSF) grant of $546,048 supports collaborative research aimed at quantifying curricular reasoning as a critical practice in teaching mathematics, with Dingman serving as Principal Investigator (PI). Additionally, Dingman is a Co-PI on an NSF grant totaling $1,444,960, focused on enhancing STEM teacher agency through authentic experiences in mathematics and science.

With a recent publication in 2025, Dingman remains an active researcher. Scholarship metrics include an h-index of 10 and 346 total citations across 27 publications. Key collaborators include Tülin Kaman, Nama Namakshi, Hailey Pullman, and Steven Homem, all from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
