Eric Knuth is a professor in the Department of
Curriculum and Instruction at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison.
His research
concerns the meaningful engagement of
students in mathematical practices and their
development of increasingly more sophisticated
ways of engaging in those practices. By
mathematical practices, he refers specifically to
activities such as communicating and justifying
mathematical claims and using algebraic
representations appropriately, flexibly, and
efficiently to model and to solve problems.
