Her research to date has focused on educational designs that emphasize learner ini- tiative and agency through inquiry or problem-based learning in formal and informal learning contexts. She has published several papers on the characteristics of learning environments that support or constrain opportunities for any students (including those from non-dominant backgrounds) to participate in key science and engineering process skills such as scientific argumentation. Her work is largely informed by the principles and perspectives on human development and cognition articulated by Cultural Historical Activity Theory. Putting theory into practice, she teaches a service-learning

Through in-depth readings, class discussions and projects, students will 1) study and analyze different forms of responsibility in engineering and resiliency in complex communities like ASGM communities; 2) critically explore strengths and limitations of dominant methods in engineering problem solving, design, and research for working with these communities; 3) develop understandings of effective forms of responsible
