programs and curricula
I have been developing hands-on science activities since my first museum job at the North Carolina Museum of Life and Science, where my first development project was a summer science camp about the senses. As program manager of a computer discovery space at the Museum of Science, Boston, I developed numerous public programs about computers, robotics, and technology, and also mentored other educators in the creation of hands-on learning experiences. I served as project manager and editor for the BioTeach biotechnology teacher professional development program. The samples of my work shown here are from my time at EDC, where I worked on math and physical science curricula.
