Research and Theory: Research Summary

My research and theory building has focused primarily on examining how to support student learning in K-12 and college classrooms. Much of my work has focused on how to integrate technology into existing classroom structures to support student learning of scientific concepts and the nature of science. In much of my research I use technology as a tool to support student learning. My research experience is exemplified by the following areas of my portfolio: Science Education Research o Virtual Solar System Project o Virtual Gorilla Project o Elementary Education o ActiveInk Teacher Education o Community of Teachers o Computer Endorsement Cohort o Inquiry Learning Forum Designing Learning Environments o History of the American West course redesign Scientific Research o Astronomy: Variable Stars o Condensed Matter: Josephson Junctions My full curriculum vita is included in Appendix A.
