Francesco Beccuti
PhD, MSc, MA
I am an associate professor at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Turin. My research interests mainly concern socio-critical and historical aspects of mathematics education and the connected issues of in(ex)clusion, broadly understood. My empirical studies concentrated on the analysis of (mathematical and non-mathematical) reflections of university students in mathematics, while my more theoretical contributions focused on policy documents impacting mathematical instruction internationally.

I also draw. Here is a short comic I made on the history of the Monty Hall problem.
