Department Chair and Associate Professor, Education
My research aims to explore effective means for transferring scholarship conducted within academia to students who are seeking to become K-12 teachers. Though this research largely occurs within the context of social studies education, my work often applies outside of the social studies, as it seeks to teach help preservice teachers understand how to promote collaborative dialogue amongst students, incorporate religion into their pedagogy, and encourage meaningful reflection by both students and teachers.
