Kayla Myers, PhD

Dr. Kayla Myers is a teacher educator and advocate, a mother, and a mather. Her beliefs about teaching and learning are grounded in cultivating warm, safe, and welcoming classrooms where mathematics is for everyone, where all scholars are mathematicians. She is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Early Childhood through Secondary Education. Her scholarly interests include elementary mathematics teacher education and qualitative methodologies, specifically teachers’ pedagogical beliefs and how they are conceptualized and studied as well as equitable elementary mathematics education and how early experiences and histories with mathematics shape in-service teachers. She has publications in the Journal of Teacher Education, Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, Mathematics Teacher Educator, Investigations in Mathematics Learning, Philosophy of Mathematics Education Journal, PDS Partners: Bridging Research to Practice, Teacher Development, Journal of Early Childhood Teacher Education, and International Review of Qualitative Research. She teaches both pre-service and in-service elementary teachers about mathematics education content and pedagogies, educational research, and equitable assessment practices. She has taught across all programs in the ESER department, including the BSE, MEd, MAT, and EdS; and this year, she is serving her department as Assistant Chair for Georgia's BEST Programs.
