Activities

American Physical Society, Principal Investigator for "PhysTEC", a project to improve the preparation of physics and physical science teachers. This is both a national coalition of institutions committed to teacher education, as well as a collection of twelve universities implementing a unique format to address barriers to effectively preparing physics and physical science (K-12) teachers. Principal Investigator for "New Faculty Workshop," a joint Society (AAPT, APS, AAS) effort to help new physics and astronomy faculty understand current education innovations and cope with issues related to new academic positions. Principal Investigator for "ComPADRE," an electronic collection of educational materials in physics and astronomy. Co-Principal Investigator on physics conferences on Graduate Education, REU Site DIrectors, and Professional Skills Development workshops for women (2008-2010).

National Science Foundation, Organized a national conference on the Course Curriculum and Laboratory Improvement program (CCLI) of the Division of Undergraduate Education. Brought together over 400 scholars and educators from across the country to explore innovative curriculum and programs in undergraduate STEM education.

Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR), Past Chair, Division of Physics and Astronomy; Co-Chair, Government and External Relations Committee; Past Chair, Constitution and Bylaws Committee. Working to improve resources and opportunities for undergraduate research.

Project Kaleidoscope, Faculty for the 21st Century. Involved in numerous activities to bring innovative curricula, pedagogical tools, and laboratory experiences to undergraduate education in the sciences.

Computer Programming Experience, Extensive experience in a variety of programming languages including professional software development, Research programming and web applications. Languages include, APL, Assembly Language (DEC, IBM PC), FORTRAN, HTML, JavaScript, LabVIEW, Macros (various packages), Optical modeling software, PASCAL, Visual Basic.
