[Maths-Education] Re: Chair at University of Cambridge

[Christian Bokhove]

Dear Kenneth,

As you perhaps know I have finished my PhD on algebra and ICT at the
Freudenthal Institute, under supervision of Jan van Maanen and Paul
Drijvers, in december last year. Of course, the job opportunity below is a
bit far-fetched, I however would like to inquire tentatively about the
section "Later this term, the Faculty also expects to advertise two
Lectureships in Mathematics Education to play lead roles in mathematics
provision on our primary and secondary PGCE courses.". Because of my
English background (mother is English), we have always anticipated perhaps
working in England. Would it be realistic as to send an open job
application for opportunities that would arise later this term?

Kind regards,

Christian Bokhove
