TJ Yusun

TJ Yusun is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematical and Computational Sciences at the University of Toronto Mississauga. Their work focuses on mathematics education, particularly active learning, academic integrity, and assessment design in proof-based and discrete mathematics courses.

• PhD in Mathematics (2018), Simon Fraser University
• MSc in Mathematics (2012), Simon Fraser University
• BS (Hons.) in Mathematics (2008), Ateneo de Manila University

Research interests include:

• Active learning pedagogies in undergraduate mathematics
• Design of assessments for conceptual understanding
• Flipping discrete mathematics courses
• Validation of concept inventories for proof-based courses
• Algorithms for linear optimization and polyhedral geometry

These interests are reflected in their recent publication of an open educational resource (OER) for discrete mathematics. While no formal awards are listed, Yusun contributes to mathematics education through curriculum development and scholarly teaching practices.
