Bio
Victoria Delaney (she/her) is an educator interested in the intersection of data-driven mathematics, technology, and teaching. She studies secondary teachers’ enactments of mathematics, statistics and data science curricula with their students, and the ways in which their teaching is informed and shaped by emergent technologies. Recently she has become interested in how educators and students come to understand artificial intelligence and how it influences learning in secondary mathematics classrooms.
Her research interests are shaped by her own experiences teaching in high schools. Prior to developing her research program, she taught statistics, calculus, algebra, and robotics in three different U.S. states, which enabled her to see how state and local policies influence schooling. When she taught in the South, she further learned how access to emergent technologies can alter students’ opportunities to learn, including obstructing their learning in cases where resources and/or education systems were insufficient to meet students’ needs.
Through her current program of research, she seeks to equip secondary teachers with technologies and pedagogies that will allow them to enact ambitious and equitable STEM instruction. She received her doctorate from Stanford University, studying mathematics education, the learning sciences, data science, and computer science, under the mentorship of Hilda Borko and Victor R. Lee.
