Congratulations to Hoyun Cho (education) who published AI Policy Approaches for Mathematics Education: A Typology of U.S. State-level Frameworks in the Journal of Korean Mathematics Education. In collaboration with Dr. Jukyung Park, Cho conducted a study examining how U.S. state-level artificial intelligence policies address mathematics education. Drawing on policies from 29 states and Puerto Rico, the study identifies major approaches to AI policy and evaluates the extent to which mathematics-specific guidance is included. The findings reveal that explicit attention to mathematics remains limited, leaving educators to adapt largely subject-neutral AI policies. The study contributes a policy framework for understanding AI integration in mathematics education and highlights ongoing needs in teacher preparation, professional development, AI literacy, and assessment integrity.

With over 12 years of her experience supporting executive leadership in higher education, Alexander shared practical strategies for navigating organizational change with self-awareness, adaptability, and confidence. The session encouraged executive assistants to recognize their influence as trusted partners, focus on what they can control, influence, and accept, and embrace opportunities to lead from wherever they serve. Through personal stories, professional experiences, and interactive discussion, participants explored ways to navigate change while fostering resilience, connection, and growth within their organizations.
