Presentations

Mooney, E., & Barrett, J. E. (2021). I co-presented a talk entitled, Using Design-based tasks to explore area measurement. This research presentation was given through a distance education arrangement as a virtual seminar, as part of the 2021 Midwest Annual Robert Noyce Conference, hosted by the Center for Math Science and Technology at ISU, on February 6, 2021.
