Research Appointments

Research Staff Member
IDA’s Science & Technology Policy Institute2013-present
I contribute my expertise in Computer Science education, STEM education, and program evaluation to science & technology policy analyses prepared for Federal Executive Branch agencies under confidential cover.
Adjunct Research Associate
Technology Enhanced Instruction Research Group
University at Albany2005-present
As a research assistant, I participate in the design, use, and analyses of qualitative (focus group, field observation, and interview) and quantitative (log analysis and questionnaire) research protocols. I also develop and manage databases to support this on-going research into technology use in K-12 public schools. The two main research strands of this group are (1) technology use in several Upstate New York public schools and (2) development of Web-based instruction for use in K-12 schools.
Hawaii Networked Learning Communities
University of Hawaii2002-2003
As a graduate research assistant, I developed web-based tools to support K-12 educators’ professional development activities designed by project partners at the Hawaii Department of Education. I participated in the design of both the tools and professional development activities and served as one of three programmers implementing, deploying, and supporting the web-based tools. I used both qualitative and quantitative research methods in my Master’s thesis to conduct an evaluation of this program.
Association for the Cooperative Advancement of Science & Education
Saratoga Springs, NY1994-present
As a research associate, I contribute to the design, planning, and use of authentic assessments in science education. ACASE develops assessments designed to measure students’ ability to discover scientific concepts. I contribute to the conceptualization of assessment methods, the design of assessment instruments, and analyses of assessment results. Additionally, I am responsible for designing professional development activities to train educators in the use of our instruments.
