2026 Math Ed Research Sharing Session
The annual Mathematics Education Research Sharing Session (and brunch!) for 2026 was held on October 20th in the STEM Building from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm. Since Fall 2022, the Math Ed Research Sharing Session has provided an informal sharing of new or ongoing research work and projects, or ideas for future proposals with perhaps some constructive input and suggestions from peers and faculty members. We are grateful that as a mathematics education research community we could continue to offer this annual Fall session. The idea for such a session originated at the request of PRIME doctoral students to learn more about the math ed research being conducted at MSU.
Over 20 were in attendance from the math ed community at MSU for this year’s session. Three presentation time slots, each consisting of 5 or 6 groups or individuals presenting their work, occurred throughout the morning.
Presenters gave a 60-second lightning speech summary at the beginning of each time slot of their work to be shared. This helped create a quick stage for the audience before starting to engage more deeply with the individual or team that was sharing within the session.
PRIME Director Beth Herbel-Eisenmann provided brief welcoming and closing remarks (see photo below).

Presenting this year were Saul Barbosa, Ayesha Bundy, Maria Cruciani, C. Davis, AJ Edson, Sara Elakesh, Ashley Fabry, Yvonne Grant, Beth Herbel-Eisenmann, Ahmad Wachidul Kohar, Reagin McNeill, Sadrack Pagiling, Andre Payadnya, Betty Phillips, Seth Ricarte, Miguel Rodriguez Mejia, Sasha Rudow, Eunice Tachie-Menson, Matt Voigt, and Kristen Vroom.
Special thanks to all of our presenters for sharing their in-progress work, as well as The People’s Kitchen for catering the delicious brunch!
We look forward to next year’s Math Ed Research Sharing Session as one of our continuing Fall traditions for the math ed community at MSU.
