Academic career

edit

Hunter's mother is education researcher Bobbie Hunter.[2] Hunter began her career as a primary school teacher, and completed a Master of Education at Massey University in 2007, on algebraic understanding in inquiry classrooms, supervised by Glenda Anthony and Ngaire Davies.[3][1] She then gained a PhD at the University of Plymouth, supervised by Professor David Burghes.[4] Hunter's interests are in early algebraic reasoning, funds of knowledge, and equity in education.[5]

Hunter was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to study equity in mathematics education at the University of Arizona.[6][1] In 2019 she was awarded a Rutherford Discovery Fellowship to research culturally responsive mathematics education in New Zealand, Cook Islands and Niuean schools.[7] She is a principal investigator of the Te Pūnaha Matatini Centre of Research Excellence.[1] Hunter was appointed by the Minister of Education to the board of the New Zealand Council for Educational Research in 2018 for a four-year term.[8]

Hunter received a Massey University Defining Excellence Early Career Researcher award in 2016 and Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia Research Team Award in 2018.[9] She was promoted to full professor from 1 January 2023.[5]
