She is a mathematics educator who is employing a language-as-resource approach to increase the learning opportunities for all learners by focusing on mathematics\/statistics and language development. As someone from a Pacific nation who has conducted research in the region, multilingualism is of personal importance as well as of strategic relevance. She has published extensively in the area of mathematics and statistics education. Her research interests span statistical literacy and lexical ambiguity in statistics. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; font-language-override: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0cm; padding: 0cm;\"\u003eDr. Danyal Farsani is an associate professor of mathematics education and is interested in language particularly in the verbal, vocal, and visual forms of language.
