Now, she has the opportunity to promote innovative mathematics instruction on an international stage.<\/p>\n<p>Bush, a professor of K\u201312 STEM education and Lockheed Martin Eminent Scholar Chair in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/college\/community-innovation-education\/\">College of Community Innovation and Education<\/a> was recently appointed to serve as a member of the U.S. National Commission on Mathematics Instruction (USNC\/MI). The <a href=\"https:\/\/ccie.ucf.edu\/teachered\/\">School of Teacher Education<\/a> faculty member\u2019s appointment began in May and will end in December 2028.<\/p>\n<h2>An Opportunity for National and Global Impact<\/h2>\n<p>Under the umbrella of the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine, USNC\/MI is a standing commission that promotes U.S. participation in mathematics activities around the world. USNC\/MI members represent the U.S. through participation in the International Commission on Mathematics Instruction (ICMI), which aims to build global interaction among mathematics educators and researchers. The commission also represents the U.S. in the International Mathematical Union, which fosters efforts to improve the quality of mathematics instruction worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the past 15 years, I\u2019ve been dedicated to interdisciplinary STEM and STEAM work grounded in deep mathematics learning, which not many other members of the commission specialize in,\u201d Bush says. \u201cI\u2019ve also worked with some of the largest school districts in the country to cultivate mathematics teacher-leaders and make systemic improvements in education. These are some of the unique perspectives I bring to the table.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Part of Bush\u2019s distinct insight is informed by her experience as the director of the <a href=\"https:\/\/ccie.ucf.edu\/lockheed-martin-academy\/\">Lockheed Martin\/UCF Mathematics and Science Academy<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/partnerships\/lockheed-martin\/\">a 30-year partnership<\/a> that supports K-12 STEM educators pursuing advanced degrees and boosts the quality of mathematics and science education for Central Florida youth.<\/p>\n<h2>Guiding the Future With Emerging Technologies<\/h2>\n<p>Not only does USNC\/MI represent the United States in mathematics education events worldwide, it also provides guidance on timely topics such as innovative technology \u2014 such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/artificial-intelligence\/\">artificial intelligence<\/a> (AI) \u2014 and instructional strategies in mathematics. Bush believes her expertise will be valuable in the commission\u2019s efforts to provide this guidance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo be part of this commission is so exciting,\u201d Bush says. \u201cIt\u2019s our voice in mathematics education to the whole world. This appointment is effortlessly synergistic with UCF\u2019s focus on STEM and AI, and it only further elevates the pioneering work we\u2019re doing here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With data science and AI currently trending as transformative tools in mathematics education, Bush says they have the potential to allow teachers and students to analyze and interpret mathematical data in a more impactful and efficient way \u2014 something she is interested in working with fellow USNC\/MI members on regarding instructional guidance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAI gives us instant access to information and data that opens doors to a whole new level of conversations in math and STEM instruction,\u201d Bush says. \u201cMy current work explores how AI can be intentionally leveraged to make our instruction more authentic and empower students to seek solutions to real challenges on a deeper level.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn USNC\/MI, we\u2019re not only interested in teaching students how to use AI,\u201d she continues. \u201cWe also want to help them think about when and why to use it while being critical consumers who understand its limitations and broader implications.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>A Prestigious Appointment and a Global Stage<\/h2>\n<p>Bush received her appointment with USNC\/MI through a nomination from the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics \u2014 the world\u2019s largest PK\u201312 mathematics education association \u2014 for which she served on the board of directors from 2019 to 2022. She says she considers the USNC\/MI appointment an extraordinary professional learning opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a big honor in our field,\u201d Bush says. \u201cThose I\u2019m serving alongside on the commission have made critical contributions to my field, and they have impactful careers as faculty, distinguished professors, endowed chairs and deans at some of the highest-performing universities in our country. I\u2019ve collaborated with some of them in the past, and others I\u2019ll be working with for the first time. I\u2019m learning so much through this experience because they work in areas adjacent to my own. It still feels a little unreal that I\u2019ve been nominated to join them and represent UCF.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She says she is looking forward to seeing how her involvement with USNC\/MI will unlock new possibilities for discovery and collaboration on the international stage.<\/p>\n<p>Bush and fellow USNC\/MI members will also be gearing up to represent the U.S. at the International Congress on Mathematics Education \u2014 one of the key events in which the commission is involved. Held every four years, this conference brings together thousands of mathematics educators from around the world to showcase their work, exchange ideas and forge partnerships. The next conference will convene in Prague in Summer 2028.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lockheed Martin Eminent Scholar Chair Sarah Bush will apply her expertise to advance
