So I was wrong. We don’t have two Amazon Top Releases—we have three! Book 1 is now the #1 top release in Children’s Arithmetic Books!

1 more week to apply! Assistant/associate prof of HDFS with expertise in quantitative methodology. You should apply! We have a great dept community and phenomenal students! Plus, West Lafayette is 75 degrees & sunny all year! (Ok, maybe not the last part, but the rest is true!)

Voting date! I know I have at lease one vote (maybe two)! We were around 70th in line at Purdue (yes I counted) and it took about 30 minutes to get through the line (we were in line 10 min early). Line was still way out the door when we left! #vote4Purpura

Thank you to all of you who helped support me during my school board campaign. I’m happy to share that I was one of the top 4 (2nd place…just as my 10yo predicted). I look forward to working with the other school board members over the next four years. wlfi.com/news/local/wes…

The call for submissions for MCLS 2025 in Hong Kong (June 9-11) is now available! If want to join a symposium submission on early math interventions or on something related to geometry, let me know! I plan to organize a symposium on one of those topics. the-mcls.org/mcls-2025-hong…

Some Indiana lawmakers want to expand pre-K access to all children throughout the state. David Purpura, director of the Center for Early Learning, said pre-K has long-term benefits for children. #PurdueHHS #PurdueUniversity #PreK #EarlyChildhoodEducation indianapublicmedia.org/news/some-indi…

Really excited to be awarded a PECASE! I’m also super excited that I can pretend to still be “early career” for a little longer :)

Now seems like a good time to remind people that IES is obsessed with cost analysis. Figuring out what works advances the goals of government efficiency. ies.ed.gov/sites/default/…
