Thisprogram officially started in fall 2006 with little to no publicity. We have a program that startedsmall and is now growing very little publicity by the college of engineering. In
the Museum and in K-12 classrooms; a curriculum development project, Engineering is Elementary: Engineering and Technology Lessons for Children; and a number of teacher professional development programs about engineering and technology for teachers of kindergarten through community college. Her projects focus on making science and engineering more accessible to marginalized populations, especially women, underrepresented minorities, and people with disabilities. She is particularly interested in the ways that the teaching and learning of engineering and science can change to include and benefit from a more diverse population.
