How Teaching to Foster Mathematical Creativity May Impact Self-efficacy for Proving
Journal of Mathematical Behavior
In this paper, Dr. Paul Regier and I investigate the five principles for maximizing creativity as defined by Sriraman (2005) and how they can influence self-efficacy for proving. We used both quantitative and qualitative methods to examine both self-efficacy itself and the four sources of self-efficacy as defined by Bandura (1997). We found that students reported that instructors asked for their ideas, but if not coupled with them sharing ideas through group work, it may have differing effects on students.

Researching in Undergraduate Mathematics Education: Possible Directions for both Students and Faculty
A Project-Based Guide to Undergraduate Research in Mathematics
This book chapter goes through possible ways of conducting or mentoring undergraduate research in mathematics education. In it, I also supply a common template for writing in undergraduate mathematics education and pose open "problems" to research more.
