HoM Toolbox, or Historiography and Methodology for Mathematicians: Introduction – Acknowledgements and About the Author

Acknowledgements

I am thankful for fruitful discussions with online audiences at the 2021 Canadian Mathematical Society Winter Meeting, the 2022 Joint Mathematics Meetings, and the December 2022 Pennsylvania Area Seminar on the History of Mathematics (PASHoM), as well as for feedback from Janet Heine Barnett and the Convergence editorial board.

About the Author

Amy Ackerberg-Hastings is the co-editor of MAA Convergence and the CSHPM Notes column in Notes of the Canadian Mathematical Society. She taught historical research and writing skills to undergraduate history majors at University of Maryland University College (now University of Maryland Global Campus) for over a decade, supervising over 200 senior theses. In 2010, she and Jeff Glasco wrote modules and online course materials for expanding the former capstone course, Introduction to Historical Writing, into the current three-course sequence: Historical Methods, Historical Writing, and Senior Thesis in History.
