Hehn, Jack G. – Physics Teacher, 2020
In January of 2019 I received the AAPT [American Association of Physics Teachers] Melba Phillips award. The award provided me the opportunity to reflect on the many programs in which I had participated and the outstanding AAPT leaders that I had the privilege to know. Those reflections are represented in the following narrative that I delivered at…

Higher education is at a pivotal point of reflection due to the forces of neoliberalism, anti-Blackness, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. In the past, higher education has overlooked the university's far future, opting to focus on readily conspicuous change. Along with this disregarded conversation, these crises present higher education faculty,…

Cagle, Nicolette L. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2017
Historically, societies have relied on universities and colleges to provide a space for young citizens to experiment with and explore the innovative approaches needed to address contemporary problems. Yet today, many universities serve as diploma mills that succeed in getting students onto the job market, but fail to give those students tools for…

Melis Muradoglu; Sophie H. Arnold; Aashna Poddar; Adam Stanaland; Duygu Yilmaz; Andrei Cimpian – Grantee Submission, 2024
Women and people of colour are underrepresented in physics in many parts of the world, to the detriment of the field. How do academics' beliefs about the role of 'brilliance' in career success contribute to these representation gaps, and what can be done to address them?

Allen, Megan; Arnold, Erin D.; Carroll, Richard E.; Freze, Matthew B.; Parson, Daniel W.; Mattson, Shawna M.; Inouye, Martha C. – Schools: Studies in Education, 2021
It is rare when a group of teachers gets to embark on a sustained, collaborative journey together to transform their teaching. It is even rarer that this group gets to reflect on this work and take a step back to appreciate the triumphs of their toils. In this article, six science educators share their reflections on how a journey of sustained…
