Biography
Gabriel Lee is a Research Fellow at the School of Education. His research interests include mathematics teacher education, mathematical argumentation and proof, teacher beliefs and practices, the use of language in mathematics classrooms, and teaching and learning in higher education.
Gabriel actively engages in multiple projects at different institutions. At UoN, Gabriel works on 'Comparative View of the Research and Teaching Nexus in Europe's Universities', which is led by Dr Rita Hordósy. This project aims to explore the link between research and teaching, the two key missions of universities by comparing the contexts of England, Hungary and Norway. He also works on 'Developing Language-Responsive Mathematics Classrooms' project, which is led by Dr Jenni Ingram, University of Oxford (OU). This project aims to design a set of materials to support teachers and students to overcome linguistic challenges associated with learning mathematics.
Having started as a secondary mathematics teacher in Hong Kong, Gabriel obtained his DPhil in Education at OU in 2022 and worked as a Lecturer in Education (Secondary Mathematics) at University of Stirling in 2022 and as a Research Fellow at UoN since 2022. He is a Fellow of Advance HE and currently an Editorial Assistant for the international journal Research in Mathematics Education.
He applies design research methodology, advanced quantitative models, and mixed research methods to the investigation of research questions in mathematics education. He engaged in research projects, such as 'Centres for Excellence in Mathematics Teaching for Mastery Randomised Controlled Trial' (2018-2023) led by Prof Geoffrey Wake and Prof Andrew Noyes, UoN, 'Supporting Secondary Mathematics Teachers to Enhance their Students' Proof Competencies' (2020-2021) led by Prof Gabriel Stylianides, OU, and 'Evaluation of the University of Nottingham's Onebillion Mathematics Intervention' (2018) led by Prof Terezinha Nunes, OU.
