Science Education Research Guide

Welcome to the Science Education Program Research Guide!

This guide is intended to describe and provide access to resources and services in support of the Science Educatiion program's objective, to prepare "leaders for science education roles in secondary and higher education," based on the belief that "professional science educators should be thoroughly educated in their content discipline and bring modern theories of learning and education to bear on their scholarship as professional teachers and in their research for the doctoral degree."
