Hello! My name is Kristin Yudt. I have a passion for teaching and learning. I enjoy challenges - from learning a new technology to working with a student to improve his or her mathematics skills.
I am currently enrolled in Lehigh's Ph.D. program in Learning Sciences and Technology. My research interests include the effects of the interactive whiteboard on student learning especially in the mathematics classroom.
I look forward to continuing to push myself at Lehigh and to contributing to the high-level of conversation that occurs in the LST and TLT classes. My goal is to become the best educator I can possibly be, and committing myself to be a lifelong learner is one step towards fulfilling that goal. I hope that Dr. Garrigan and TLT 450 will introduce me to new technology tools that I can implement in my math classes.
I am currently a mathematics teacher in Parkland School District, Allentown, PA. I am passionate about math and I truly enjoy working with middle school students in a district that is very supportive of teacher initiatives. In the Fall and Summer semesters, I also teach a course in the Mathematics and Computer Science Department at Moravian College in Bethlehem, PA.
I received my Bachelor of Science cum laude in Mathematics from the University of Notre Dame in 2000 and my Masters in Educational Leadership from Lehigh in 2004.
