She teaches basic skills mathematics, including special sections for students with learning disabilities. She gives regional and national workshops on learning styles and implications in the math classroom, teaching mathematics to college students with disabilities, Internet use in the math classroom, and strategies for developing a comprehensive developmental math program. She has co-authored three math workbooks on computational skills, pre-algebra, and elementary algebra.

Professor Freedman won a 2002 Amatyc Input Award from the American Mathematical Association of Two Year Colleges recognizing exemplary mathematics programs focusing on innovative rethinking of curriculum and pedagogy using technology in introductory college courses before calculus. She won the 1997 National Association of Developmental Education's Professional Development Award for her interactive multimedia algebra tutorial. In August 1997, she was one of the national winners of Microsoft's "Innovators in Higher Education Challenge" contest.
