REGISTER NOW! We are excited to partner with @informalscience to bring you this month's interactive Webinar Panel on Identity Development and #STEM Learning on Oct. 27th @ 3pm EDT!

Many states, districts, and schools are unsure of what the coming school year will bring. Will we back together in the classroom or teaching and learning from a distance? Perhaps a blend of the two? In this four-part web seminar series, we’ll explore ways in which we can continue to give our students experience with relevant, intriguing phenomena to create the need to engage in science learning to explain what they’ve observed utilizing distance-learning strategies.

Join PER in welcoming Dr. Mary Bridget Kustusch, who will be giving a seminar on October 22, asking the question 'How does one become a STEM education researcher?' As an explicitly interdisciplinary field, combining disciplinary expertise with education research theory and methodology, developing mastery in STEM education research is not straightforward. It can be particularly challenging for "boundary crossers" coming to education research after training in a more traditional STEM disciplinary area.
