She teaches undergraduate courses for the EC-6 program and graduate courses for the Elementary M.Ed. programs. Her recent projects involve exploring curriculum integration in elementary social studies classrooms, preparing social studies teachers for culturally diverse classrooms, and the role of teacher preparation in novice primary teachers’ practice. Currently, she is working on a manuscript about teacher education and a research project that deals with practicing teachers’ use of curriculum in primary grades. The Donovan Patton COE Impact Grant supports both projects.
