Thesis Title: Design research in statistics education: On computer tools and symbolizing

About

My research interests are statistics, mathematics and science education. I first studied the history of statistics as a resource for design and Peircean semiotics to understand students' diagrammatic reasoning.
Over the last years I have increasingly become interested in the question of what technical knowledge employees need at work and how this is mediated by technology (with Hoyles, Noss, Kent). A logical next step was to study how how vocational students can be supported to develop such knowledge. This implies I am interested in knowledge issues in the boundary crossing between school and work settings.
Since 2004 I am also exploring the value of inferentialism (Brandom, 1994, 2000, 2009) for educational theory.
