Assistant Professor of Science Education
I am jointly appointed in the Department of Learning, Teaching & Curriculum and the Department of Biochemistry at Mizzou. My research agenda in science education builds on students’ and teachers’ use of scientific evidence and weighing of decisions. I am interested in classroom assessment, equity, language, and the design of instructional materials for students and teachers. NEW! Projects
