Our research group is interested in studying the cognitive role of mathematical aesthetics and strategic choices of problem solving solution methods and the relational role of item discrimination and difficulty. We examine how problem solvers' behavior might be affected or altered by elementary modifications of problem structures. This research position is open to undergraduate and graduate students.
