The recent Evidence-Based Teaching Academy (EBTA) reunion showcased faculty progress on various teaching projects. The reunion underscored the importance of collaboration, innovation, and support in enhancing teaching practices and addressing challenges in science education.
On Monday August 19th, The New Faculty Orientation, now called "Welcome and Connect," will take place for new faculty members of the Eberly College of Science (ECoS) community and its teaching culture. It is a half-day interactive, informative session that combines presentations, activities, and networking opportunities.
What it does:
This fall the Grove Center will be resuming our teaching and learning discussion and workshop, series Food for Thought. Follow our Grove Center announcements for upcoming sessions. We also offer reminder emails through our listserv. If you would like to be added to the listserv, email the Grove Center.
About Me:
Although I am new to the Grove Center and Penn State University, I have nearly 20 years of experience in higher education. Before joining Penn State, I spent 15 years as a member of the faculty at the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) where I taught general chemistry, organic chemistry, and first-year seminar courses and conducted research in chemistry education. My research specifically seeks to understand the role that cognitive load plays in students’ learning of chemistry and uses physiological techniques such as heart rate to monitor changes in load during the learning process. I also served for almost a decade as director of UNCW’s Center for the Support of Undergraduate Research and Fellowships.
