ALT Looking for a new doctoral student in science education to join the University of Illinois to work on the EMPOWER project. EMPOWER is a 5-year NIH-funded project in collaboration with the University of Colorado Boulder that involves working with middle and high school science teachers to adapt and enact NGSS Storyline-based materials to better support students’ epistemic agency. Up to 5 years of funding (up to 50% RAship) available, including tuition waiver. Research interests in science teacher learning; teacher professional development; students’ epistemic agency; and qualitative research would be good fits. Experience teaching science at the 5-12 level and/or working with secondary science teachers a plus. Contact Dr. Stina Krist ([email protected]) for more information, and apply to the PhD program in Math, Science, & Engineering Education by Dec 1 here: https://education.illinois.edu/ci/programs-degrees/mse
