Scholar-generated biography
Paola Iannone is a mathematics education researcher at the University of Edinburgh, focusing on the assessment and learning processes in undergraduate mathematics. Her work explores how summative assessments shape student learning, the role of oral performance assessments, and the transition from school to university mathematics. She investigates students' perceptions of assessment practices, the impact of high-stakes evaluations, and the development of pedagogical strategies to enhance learning. Her research also addresses the interplay between syntactic and semantic knowledge in proof production and the challenges students face in adapting to university-level mathematics.
