Dr. Carla Gerberry serves as an Associate Professor in the Mathematics Department at Xavier University, where she has held a faculty position since 2013. Her academic work bridges educational theory and practical classroom implementation within mathematics education.
Her educational qualifications include:
- Ph.D. in Mathematics Education from Purdue University (2009)
- M.S. in Education, Mathematics Education from Purdue University (2004)
- B.S. in Education with Mathematics Concentration from Youngstown State University (2003)
Dr. Gerberry's research program centers on critical issues in mathematics education, particularly examining how self-efficacy beliefs affect female students' persistence trajectories in STEM fields. Her work extends to teacher development, analyzing how educators implement national standards through inquiry-based methodologies while navigating pedagogical challenges. This dual focus creates meaningful connections between student psychology and instructional practice.
Her professional activities emphasize practical applications of educational research, with particular attention to gender dynamics in mathematics education and evidence-based teaching strategies that support diverse learners.
