Dr Julia Hill is a Lecturer in Mathematics and Numeracy education at the University of Melbourne and Deakin University. Leveraging her background in teaching and educational psychology, Dr Hill’s research bridges the gap between positive psychology and mathematics education. She explores the power of positive emotions, strengths, and flourishing mindsets in both teaching and learning mathematics. Her doctoral research led to the development of a ‘mathematical wellbeing’ framework, now used internationally to understand ways to cultivate positive feelings and experiences in mathematics. A passionate advocate for translating research into practice, Dr Hill is collaborating with teachers across Victoria to develop strategies to support a flourishing mathematics classroom.
