learners, and power and privilege in the sciences and politics of Mathematics and Mathematics Education. DELORES B. LINDSEY Associate Professor, College of Education, Health, and Human Services, CSUSM Dr. Delores B. Lindsey, Assistant Professor at Cal States San Marcos, earned her Ph.D. in Educational Leadership from Claremont Graduate University in Claremont, California. She earned her M.Ed. from Southern University in Scotlandville, Louisiana. She is the Coordinator for the MA and Credential Program in Educational Administration at CSUSM. Dr. Lindsey has served k-­‐12 education as a middle grades and high school teacher, assistant principal, principal, and county office of education administrator. Her focus for research and teaching is developing culturally proficient leadership practices. She is coauthor of Culturally Proficient Instruction: A guide for people who teach, 2nd ed. (2005) and Culturally Proficient Coaching: Supporting educators to create equitable schools, (2007), published by Corwin Press. As a university professor Dr. Lindsey leads and coaches students and organizations using motivational and inspirational communication skills, “strategic visioning” techniques, team development strategies, and leadership standards for excellence. Drawing from her southern heritage, she invites students of educational leadership to examine and share personal stories in ways to surface assumptions, beliefs, and actions. Graduate students appreciate her refreshing look at life within an organization as reflected in the stories and language of its members. Using the lens of Cultural Proficiency, Dr. Lindsey helps organizations and groups examine their policies and practices, and as well as individual beliefs and values about cross-­‐cultural communication. Her favorite question is: Are we who we say we are? This and other reflective questions guide leaders in examining their espoused vales and their values-­‐in-­‐action. Dr. Lindsey serves as coach and co-­‐researcher for several local school districts and administrators. ROBIN MARION Associate Professor, College of Education, Health, and Human Services, CSUSM Dr. Robin D. Marion (Ph.D., University of Wisconsin-­‐Madison) is an assistant professor of Teaching and Learning at CSUSM. Dr. Marion previously taught in an M.Ed. program at National-­‐Louis University, in the teacher education program at University of Wisconsin-­‐ Madison, and high school science and agriculture in Vacaville, CA. Dr. Marion’s research interests revolve around teacher voice in educational theory, practice and policy. Facilitating practitioner conducted research (e.g. teacher research, action research), increasing access to teacher-­‐authored studies, and cross study analysis are central to her work. Dr. Marion, in collaboration with colleagues at UC Davis and CSU Sacramento, developed the League of Teacher Researchers, an electronic archive of teacher authored studies. These studies form a rich, largely untapped literature about teaching and learning.
