Clare Wallace Assistant Professor at Durham University

About me

I am an Assistant Professor in the Education group within the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Durham University. Previously I was a Teaching Fellow here, and I completed my PhD at Durham in 2021.

I’m interested in:

  • how students develop mathematical writing skills;
  • whether peer assessment can help (and whether it’s a good thing anyway);
  • how we talk about examples with students;
  • and e-assessment (particularly STACK).
