Ph.D. Teaching and Teacher Education

Areas of Interest: My area of interest and research are in teaching special education and at-risk students in inclusionary middle school science classrooms, using technology to assist conceptual understanding among diverse learners. I
am also interested in curriculum design and development of resources for differentiated instruction in science. I expect to complete my program by Fall 2006.
