Erin Barno is an associate measurement scientist in K–16 mathematics education in the SABE division of the ETS Research Institute. She bridges her background in mathematics teaching and mathematics teacher education with educational technology design, assessment, and research. Her research leverages educational technology to create learning opportunities, particularly in how teachers develop an awareness of their choices and changing critical consciousness and students have access to rigorous and culturally relevant mathematical tasks. Due to the persistent message that mathematics teaching and learning is politically neutral, her work analyzes mathematics teacher learning and student mathematical tasks to make sense of if and how ambitious and equitable mathematics teaching occurs in the classroom. Her expertise is designing within and facilitating mathematics teacher learning using digital platforms that leverage codesign and explore possibilities with large language models. Before joining ETS, Erin earned her M.S.T. in secondary mathematics education at Boston College and was a former secondary mathematics teacher and instructional coach in the greater Boston area. Following this, she earned her Ph.D. in STEM curriculum and instruction at Boston University and worked as a research affiliate at the MIT Teaching Systems Lab.
