About

Leslie Massey is an educator and researcher dedicated to improving mathematics instruction and student readiness in higher education. Her primary research areas include developmental mathematics education, online and flipped classroom pedagogy, and bridge programs that support engineering students transitioning into college-level coursework. Massey’s most notable contribution is her work on summer math bridge programs, exemplified by her 2024 paper “Preparing Engineering Students for the Fall Semester through a Summer Math Bridge Program,” which has already garnered 3 citations. This research addresses critical gaps in student preparedness, offering evidence-based strategies to enhance retention and success in engineering disciplines. Beyond her scholarship, Massey has made significant practical impacts: she has taught a wide range of mathematics courses—including College Algebra, Math for Elementary Teachers, Mathematical Reasoning, and Finite Mathematics—and played a key role in spearheading her department’s online initiative to flip classrooms and develop a fully online program for service courses. Her leadership as Testing Coordinator further underscores her commitment to improving assessment and learning outcomes. Massey’s work bridges research and practice, making her a valuable contributor to mathematics education.
