We are excited to announce Co-Integrate Speaker Series spring session of '20-'21.
Dr. Kristen Bieda will welcome Dr. Higinio Dominguez, Associate Professor in the Department of Teacher Education at Michigan State University. Higinio conceptualizes the mathematics classroom as a vibrant ecology in which life-giving forces meet and diffract. His methodological and analytic approaches focus on following the new patterns and ways of knowing that emerge from these beautiful diffractions.
On Friday, April 16, MISciPLN welcomes its founding sponsor, CREATE for STEM’s Joe Krajcik and Sue Codere. They will join us to share their long-awaited, elementary research highlighting the public introduction of 3rd-5th grade Multiple Literacies in Project-Based Learning (MLPBL). The findings thus far have been exciting, and CREATE for STEM is eager to share its work with others!
The conference theme is a fitting call for this era of drastic change (e.g., population shifts, prominence of technology, disappearing economies) and daunting challenges (e.g., increased frequency of life-impacting natural and human-inspired disasters). It is a charge to conduct science education research for a socially just world.
Join Stanford’s Graduate School of Education’s Science in The City Research Group as they welcome the team of Dr. David Stroupe, Dr. Karen Hammerness, Dr. Scott McDonald, & Dr. Kirsten Mawyer. Together, they wrote an incredible text that explores and challenges how we train modern science teachers. Given, theoretical and practical challenges of teaching science, teacher educators must have a detailed understanding of how to build a science teaching force that understands students, understands curriculum, and understands core pedagogical practices.
The Michigan State University (MSU) College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (CANR) will lead conversations and events focusing on trust in science throughout the year. Dr. Cary Funk is director of science and society research at Pew Research Center, where she leads the Center’s efforts to understand the implications of science for society.
