As a doctoral candidate at Simon Fraser University, she currently pursues research into the generative possibilities of community spaces related to mathematics education, including those within social media settings. She is also deeply interested in environments that occasion mathematical thinking, the role of autonomy in mathematics classrooms, affective aspects of learning mathematics, and mathematics teacher professional learning. She actively participates in the online mathematics education community via Twitter at @JudyLarsen3 and hosts a website at judylarsen.ca.
