She has a PhD in mathematics from the University of Pennsylvania and taught at Yale University as a J. W. Gibbs Instructor of Mathematics. Beckmann has done research in Arithmetic Geometry, but her current main interests are the mathematical education of teachers and mathematics content for students at all levels, but especially for <span class=SpellE>PreK</span> through Grade 8. Beckmann developed several mathematics content courses for prospective elementary school teachers at the University of Georgia and wrote a book for such courses, <em><span style='font-family:Times'>Mathematics for Elementary Teacher</span></em>s, published by Pearson Education, now in a third edition. She is interested in helping college faculty learn to teach mathematics content courses for elementary and middle grades teachers and she works with graduate students and postdoctoral fellows toward that end. As part of this effort, Beckmann directs the <i>Mathematicians Educating Future Teachers</i> (MEFT) component of the University of Georgia Mathematics Department s VIGRE II grant. Beckmann was a member of the writing team of NCTM s <i style='mso-bidi-font-style: normal'>Curriculum Focal Points for Prekindergarten through Grade 8 Mathematics</i>, was a member of Committee on Early Childhood Mathematics of the National Research Council and co-author of its report, <i style='mso-bidi-font-style: normal'>Mathematics Learning in Early Childhood: Paths Toward Excellence and Equity</i>, has worked on the development of several state mathematics standards, and was a member of the mathematics writing team for the <i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'>Common Core State Standards for Mathematics</i>. Several years ago Beckmann taught an average 6th grade mathematics class every day at a local public school in order to better understand school mathematics teaching. Beckmann has won several teaching awards, including the General Sandy Beaver Teaching Professorship awarded by the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Georgia, the Josiah <span class=SpellE>Meigs</span> Distinguished Teaching Professorship, which is the highest teaching honor at the University of Georgia, and the Regents Teaching Award from the University System of Georgia.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style='tab-stops:45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt'><b><span style='font-size:14.0pt'>My teaching and some recent books, projects, papers, and presentations</span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>:<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style='tab-stops:45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt'><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Teaching and courses</span></b><span style='font-size: 12.0pt'>:<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style='margin-left:.5in;tab-stops:45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt'><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Spring 2012: <a href="http://www.math.uga.edu/~sybilla/12Sp2003/">MATH 2003</a>, Arithmetic for Elementary Teachers; <a href="http://www.math.uga.edu/~sybilla/12Sp5030/">MATH 5030</a>, Geometry for Middle Grades Teachers; <a href="http://www.math.uga.edu/~sybilla/EMAT9700/Spring12.htm">EMAT 9700</a> an observation course to prepare teachers of future teachers.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">   </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style='margin-left:.5in;tab-stops:45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt'><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Previous semesters: webpages of my current and past <a href="Courses.html">courses</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style='margin-left:.5in;tab-stops:45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt'><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Description of <a href="http://www.math.uga.edu/~sybilla/UGAElemMath/index.htm">math courses for prospective elementary and middle grades teachers at UGA</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style='tab-stops:45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt'><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>My math textbook for elementary teachers</span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>: <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in;tab-stops:45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt'><em><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Times;font-style:normal;mso-bidi-font-style: italic'><a href="http://wps.aw.com/aw_beckmann_mathelem_3/139/35792/9162920.cw/index.html"><i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'>Mathematics for Elementary Teachers with Activities Manual</i></a></span></em><em><span style='font-size:12.0pt; font-family:Times'>, </span></em><em><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family: Times;font-style:normal;mso-bidi-font-style:italic'>3<sup>rd</sup> edition, published by Addison-Wesley (Pearson Education) 2011</span></em><em><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Times'>. <a href="http://www.aw-bc.com/catalog/academic/product/0,1144,0321447174,00.html">Mathematics for Elementary Teachers</a></span></em><span style='font-size:12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family:"Times New Roman"'>, 2nd edition, 2008.
