Magdalini Lada

Magdalini Lada is an Associate Professor in the Department of Teacher Education at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Her work bridges mathematics education and history of mathematics, focusing on pedagogical strategies to enhance preservice teachers’ understanding of geometry, curriculum design, and reasoning-and-proving in mathematical instruction.

• Education: Ph.D. in Mathematics (NTNU, 2011)

Recent research explores the integration of history and philosophy of mathematics into teacher training, with publications analyzing textbook reasoning items and designing courses that connect historical problems (e.g., construction problems of antiquity) to modern pedagogy. Her earlier work delved into advanced algebraic structures like Auslander generators and T-Koszul algebras.

She has presented at international conferences such as the Europea Summer University on the History and Epistemology in Mathematics Education and ICME 14, emphasizing innovative teaching methods including flipped learning models.
