About Me

My name is Sage Mitchell.

I am a researcher at Portland State University, working on my doctorate in math education. My research interests include the role of context in learning and strategies for classroom equity; I specifically focus on the undergraduate and high school education.

About This Site

The word finestrina (fin-uh-STREE-nuh) is Italian and means “little window.” Even through the littlest of windows can you see the broadest view, if only you look closely enough.

This site is still under construction, so you may find things to be short or incomplete. E.g., the search is not working, but you do get to see a fun little coffee cup on the 404 page. The coffee cup, and this entire website’s theme, is derived from simplr by Patrick Lefevre under the GPL-2.0 license.
