Service, Teaching, & Research (STaR) in Mathematics Education: Supporting Early Career Professionals is an early career induction program for faculty in mathematics education (with tenure track appointments in institutions of higher education). It is designed to address common challenges including: teaching courses (mathematics content and methods) designed for pre and in-service K-12 teachers, establishing a research agenda, and developing leadership/service skills. The program also provides opportunities to network with other new mathematics education faculty beyond the participant's home institution.
