His primary research interests include applied mathematics, computational aerodynamics, and numerical analysis.

Edward Burger is President of Southwestern University. He has delivered over 700 addresses and authored over 70 mathematics research articles, books, and video series, including The 5 Elements of Effective Thinking, translated into over a dozen languages. His most recent book, Making Up Your Mind: Thinking Effectively Through Creative Puzzle-Solving will be published by Princeton University Press in November. His KUT/NPR series Higher ED is on iTunes.

Matt DeLong (Brown, 1999) is transitioning this summer from Taylor University to Marian University, where he will be Professor of Mathematics and Department Chair. He has been an Associate Director of MAA Project NExT since 2012. His interests include number theory and knot theory.

Sloan Evans Despeaux (Forest, 2002) is Professor of Mathematics at Western Carolina University. Her research interests include the history of mathematics (especially the mathematics, mathematicians, and scientific journals in nineteenth-century Britain). She is a 2002 Project NExT Forest Dot and loves her NExT network. She is cofounder of the North Carolina Network of Math Teachers’ Circles and is active in her local Smoky Mountain Math Teachers’ Circle. She has taught fully online, hybrid, and flipped mathematics courses.

Tamás Forgács is an associate professor in the Department of Mathematics at the California State University, Fresno. He has been involved in a number of different types of undergraduate research programs over the last ten years, including REUs, CURM, and FURST. His research area is in complex analysis. When not doing math, he enjoys exploring the Sierra Nevadas, and working on cars.

Rochelle Gutiérrez is Professor of Curriculum and Instruction and Latina/Latino Studies at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Her research interrogates the unearned privilege that mathematics holds in society and the roles that race, class, language, and gender play in teaching and learning mathematics so as to open up new possible relationships between living beings, mathematics, and the planet. Her current research projects include: theorizing the roles of mathematics in relation to power, identity, the body, and authority in society; supporting mathematics teachers who engage their students in rigorous and creative mathematics and who are committed to social justice; and documenting moments of “Nepantla” and “creative insubordination” in the everyday practices of mathematics teachers.

Project NExT Plenary Sessions

Opening Plenary Date: Monday, July 30 Time: 2:20­3:20 Leader: Hortensia Soto Group: 90 New Fellows (Peach’18 cohort) Title: Ready­Set­Transform Abstract: MAA Project NExT is an opportunity to become immersed in a community of mathematicians who want to learn more about the art and craft of teaching mathematics. In this interaction, the Fellows will have an opportunity to engage in rich mathematical tasks in a student­centered environment, to reflect on and discuss the benefits of such teaching practices, and to situate themselves in settings where such practices might be criticized or ineffective. All of these interactions are designed with an eye towards discussions regarding equity in the undergraduate mathematics classroom. My hope is that the Fellows will recognize how fun it is to teach using evidenced­based teaching and how such practices can transform their students’ lives.

She is a mathematics educator whose research interests focus on the teaching and learning of complex analysis. She adopts the philosophy of embodied cognition into her teaching and research and thus, bodily movement is an integral part of her work.

Date: Tuesday, July 31 Time: 8:20 ­ 9:20am Leader: Robert Talbert , Grand Valley State University Group: 90 New Fellows (Peach’18 cohort) Title: World Building: Your Role as a Contributor to Workplace Culture Abstract: Being successful in academia involves more than just excellent teaching and productive research. It also involves becoming a positive, contributing part of an organizational culture. By "culture", we mean the values, beliefs, and rituals that an organization uses to assign meaning to the things with which it’s involved. Every organization, including every Math Department, has a culture. A positive one will make your work a source of daily joy; a dysfunctional one will make your entire life miserable. As professors, it's the job of each of us to build the cultures we want to see, and this is one of the most complicated new roles you will encounter transitioning from graduate school to being a professor. In this session, I'll share some of my experiences in higher education and draw upon my recent sabbatical year in

industry as part of a high­functioning, innovative corporate culture to think with you about how we can help build workplaces that are supportive and welcoming for all, and make our jobs places where we can be happy and productive for our whole careers. (Suggested pre­plenary reading: http://rtalbert.org/sabbatical­lessons­part­4/ ) Bio: Robert Talbert (Peach, 1997) is Professor and Assistant Chair in the Department of Mathematics at Grand Valley State University.

Date: Tuesday, July 25 Time: 1:20­2:20 Leader: Linda Braddy , Tarrant County College Group: 90 New Fellows (Peach’18 cohort) Title: Killing It (without Killing Yourself): Academic Time Management Abstract: Time management, vital to a successful career, can be surprisingly difficult to effectively practice. It requires an up­front investment of time to prioritize your goals and develop basic organizational skills. In whatever role you function as a faculty member, focused primarily on research, primarily on teaching, or somewhere in between, time management skills will help you achieve your professional goals. It has taken me years to develop methods and tools that are highly effective for me in organizing my life and accomplishing my goals. The fundamental principles I will share with you can provide a basis for developing habits that will pay off for you throughout your career. Bio: Linda Braddy (Cardinal, 2001) is Vice President for Academic Affairs at Tarrant County College Northeast Campus in the Fort Worth­Dallas metroplex. The former Deputy Executive Director of the MAA, her 20­1 record of successful NSF grant applications produced a portfolio of over $16.5 million. An award­winning teacher, she is always working to improve her own time management skills so she can do more with less ­ and still have time to spend with her grandkids.

Date: Tuesday, July 25 Time: 4:40­6:00 Leader: Dave Kung , St. Mary’s College of Maryland / MAA Project NExT Group: 90 New Fellows (Blue’17 cohort) Title: Rising to the Challenge of Diversifying the Mathematics Community

Abstract: Under­represented minority students are more likely to drop out of college. Minority students and women are more likely to leak from the STEM pipeline at every stage from middle school on. Why do we need to address these issue? What can we do in our classrooms, departments, and institutions to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to succeed? When faced with a challenging situation, what will you do to make our world a more just place? Bio: Dave Kung (Gold, 2000) teaches at St. Mary's College of Maryland and directs MAA Project NExT. After studying analysis, he switched to mathematics education, looking at instructor knowledge of student thinking. He has won his MAA section’s teaching and service awards, and he has passionately pushed to diversify mathematics. In his spare time, he runs, bikes, and plays violin ­ and coerces his daughter to join him.

Date: Wednesday, August 1st Time: 8:20­9:20 Leader: Brian Katz and Klay Kruczek Group: 90 New Fellows (Peach’18 cohort) and 85 Returning Fellows (Blue’17 cohort) Title: A Basis for Intentional Course Design Abstract: We have all apprenticed in teaching students, for better or worse, but that apprenticeship rarely lets us participate in the design work that takes place outside the classroom or in questioning the hidden assumptions in our experiences. Many of us received minimal further training as teachers while pursuing our mathematical specializations, but we are expected to be prepared to design multiple courses, some from scratch, in our positions after graduation. Without a framework for thinking about course design, this work can be stressful and overly time­consuming. In this session, we will explore a framework, which is part of the MAA's Instructional Practices Guide, that we believe will help you wrangle the infinite­dimensional space of possibilities for course design with 7 guiding questions. Bio: Brian Katz (Pine'09) teaches at Augustana College, co­authored the MAA textbook Distilling Ideas , and serves on the boards of PRIMUS, MAA's CRM, AMS Blog inclusion/exclusion, and IBL SIGMAA. BK is a geometer and researches questions of disciplinary epistemology in the context of mathematics, inquiry­based classrooms, and pre­service secondary teachers. BK loves singing and getting meta. Klay Kruczek (Sterling, 2005) teaches at Southern CT State University, co­edited the MAA Notes Volume on Resources for Preparing Middle School Mathematics Teachers, and serves as the Northeastern Section NExT coordinator. Klay studies positional game theory (think Tic­Tac­Toe), but primarily teaches pre­service teachers. While not at work, he rehabs the old Christmas tree farm he lives on.

Closing Plenary Date: Wednesday, August 1st Time: 5:00­6:00 Leader: Edward Burger Group: 90 New Fellows (Peach’18 cohort) and 85 Returning Fellows (Blue’17 cohort) Title: Think–Create–Connect: To make meaning and make a difference Abstract: In this interactive session with an old and feeble mathematician­professor­turned­president, the youthful and vibrant Peach’18 and Blue’17 Fellows will have the opportunity to ask lingering questions about their teaching, research, scholarship, careers, tenure, administrations, fears, failures, and joys. The hope is that the answers and conversation will help allow these fantastic Fellows’ future lives to flourish. Bio: Edward Burger is President of Southwestern University. He has delivered over 700 addresses and authored over 70 mathematics research articles, books, and video series, including The 5 Elements of Effective Thinking , translated into over a dozen languages. His most recent book, Making Up Your Mind: Thinking Effectively Through Creative Puzzle­Solving will be published by Princeton University Press in November. His KUT/NPR series Higher ED is on iTunes.
