Ho-Chieh Lin, a Fulbright scholar from Taiwan, is currently a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Teaching and Learning at The Ohio State University. Lin’s research addresses topics in Mathematics/STEM education, including technology integration, equity issues, and fractions cognition. His current research project investigates how children communicate their thinking around mathematical videos. He also designs a video-based online environment for promoting mathematical justification. The preliminary findings show that this environment creates opportunities for children to express their authentic ideas and engage in mathematical discussions with their peers.
Prior to his studies at OSU, Lin had taught elementary schools in Taiwan and the United States for several years. Particularly, he loves teaching mathematics, science, and language arts.
