Maker Educator Collective
At MEC, our main goal is to provide an outlet for providing opportunities to train educators who have never engaged in making before in their schools, museums or other makerspaces.

My current research involves collection and analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data regarding student experiences, performance and engagement in science education from elementary school through graduate school. I currently teach courses in secondary science methods and graduate seminars at the School of Education around making and the development of interest in STEM education. In addition, I lead a seminar for doctoral students in STEM fields who plan to pursue academic careers and are interested in improving their teaching practices based on research.
