Juan Pablo Mejía Ramos

Juan Pablo Mejía Ramos is a Professor at Rutgers University, jointly appointed in the Department of Learning and Teaching (Graduate School of Education) and the Department of Mathematics (School of Arts and Sciences). His research focuses on mathematical argumentation and proof, exploring how students and mathematicians construct, read, and present proofs.

• PhD and MS in Mathematics Education from University of Warwick
• BS in Mathematics from Universidad de Los Andes

His work includes NSF-funded projects on proof comprehension, real analysis pedagogy, and mathematical explanation. Key grants include:

• NSF DUE-1821553 ($600,000): Developing Proof Comprehension Tests
• NSF STS-1921688 ($26,870): Workshop on Mathematical Explanation
• British Academy SG141241 (£3,733): Mathematical Language Analysis

He contributes to NSF DRL-1008641 (Proving styles in university mathematics) and DUE-1245625 (Validation of proof comprehension tests). His teaching spans courses in mathematical reasoning, real analysis, and secondary mathematics methods.

Mejía Ramos co-founded the Proof Comprehension Research Group (PCRG) and the ULTRA Project, which reimagines real analysis instruction for educators.
