QUICK BIOAn Associate Professor in the UTEP Dept. of Mathematical Sciences since 2004, statistics/mathematics educator Larry Lesser has taught university mathematics, statistics and math education courses in Colorado, Georgia, and Texas.  His time in Texas also includes work as a state agency statistician and as a full-time high school math teacher and department chair!  His statistics/mathematics education interests include equity, misconceptions/intuition/representations, language/culture, and teacher education. His research/scholarship includes 50+ national/international talks and 50+ peer-reviewed papers/books in statistics/math education (e.g., the co-authored 2009 COMAP/Freeman math-for-liberal-arts textbook For All Practical Purposes and a paper in the current issue of Statistics Education Research Journal), has led to service on four national/international research or editorial boards (including being a founding editor of the journal Teaching for Excellence and Equity in Mathematics), and has been cited by others in 20+ journals.  His outreach and teaching innovations have generated invited regional and national conference keynotes and stories/interviews in international mass media (e.g., CNN Headline News).
