Anna Stokke is a Canadian mathematician and math education advocate. She is a professor of mathematics at the
University of Winnipeg in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
Stokke earned a B.Sc. (Mathematics) from Brandon University, an M.Sc. (Mathematics) from University of Manitoba and a Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Alberta. Her dissertation was titled Polynomial representations of general linear, symplectic, and quantum general linear groups, and she was supervised by Gerald Cliff. [1] She has been a faculty member in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Winnipeg since 2003. She was Chair of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, 2017-2022. Her research areas are combinatorial representation theory and algebraic combinatorics.
Stokke co-founded an advocacy group WISE Math in 2011 [2], which advocated to restore foundational skills to the math curriculum in Manitoba and other provinces that adopted the WNCP math curriculum. In 2013, Manitoba added times tables and standard algorithms back in the curriculum [3].
Stokke co-founded and co-runs a non-profit organization, Archimedes Math Schools [4], which delivers after-school math classes to children.
Stokke has been a critic of discovery-based math curricula and has frequently given media interviews on math education for radio, television, and print, for news outlets across Canada [5], [6], [7]. She authored a C.D. Howe Report in 2015 [8].
Stokke is the producer and host of the education podcast Chalk & Talk [9]. She has interviewed leading educators from around the world on teaching and math.
