Henry Gillow-Wiles

Henry Gillow-Wiles has both a Ph.D. in Mathematics Education and a M.S. in Mathematics from Oregon State University. His research centers on investigating the impact of online community of inquiry structures on teaching and learning. His most recent project focused on helping college level faculty redesign their courses to more fully engage first-year and first- generation students using a High Impact Practices structure to create signature assignments. With a student-centered pedagogical perspective, these vulnerable students were better able to transition to the tasks for college students. As part of sharing his research, he has edited several research compendiums and co-authored multiple peer-reviewed journals and chapters. In addition to delivering numerous conference presentations, he has served as the chair for the SITE math education SIG and the Internet officer in the American Education Research Association as for the SIG-TACTL (Technology as a Change Agent in Teaching and Learning).
