Research Focus
I am an educational researcher currently pursuing research projects in the nexus of the nature of science, student learning, science teacher pedagogical content knowledge, and educational psychology. I have served as a Principal Investigator for 5 NSF-funded projects studying critical components of exemplary inclusive STEM schools, as well as creating an electronic notebook that fosters high school science students’ computational thinking during data analysis with self-regulated learning. I am co-editor and contributing author to the STEM Road Map Curriculum Series published by National Science Teachers’ Association Press. I am currently working with high school science teachers to develop interventions for improving students’ self-regulation of learning for science and engineering practices, particularly computational thinking.
