Biography

Lorelei Coddington has served in numerous roles such as professor, classroom teacher, researcher, and curriculum consultant, which have enabled her to support teacher development through coursework taught at 51蹤獲, Claremont Graduate University and Whittier College. She received her Doctor of Education from Claremont Graduate University in 2014. Coddingtons research examines teacher knowledge, reflection and videos in professional development. Previous research projects have included three multi-year k-12 grants examining curriculum, teaching, and learning in math, science, and history. Her book, Teaching Outside the Box: Technology-Infused Math Instruction, published in 2019 (Kendall/Hunt), supports pre-service and inservice teachers mathematics pedagogy.
