I’m honored to be recognized by @FIU alongside inspiring colleagues who are making a meaningful impact in their fields. They say it takes a village, and I’ve been fortunate to be part of one that champions purpose, empathy, and compassion in all they do. news.fiu.edu/2025/celebratin…

At #TalkingScience we explore how to connect #science #learning to what families already love to do. If you know of families who love to cook together, feel free to share the following information about a free, at-home, cooking science program. Compensation is available!

In trying to make #education #research accessible, I used @NotebookLM to create a #podcast of our recent #TalkingScience paper. I like the episode; not sure about the AI part. Feel free to share your thoughts about the episode or uses of AI in research: bit.ly/4aR3NsF

The latest publication from the #TalkingScience team asks the question: If family conversations about science support children's #STEM identity development, what role might overall #family communication patterns play? @MDPIOpenAccess mdpi.com/2076-328X/15/2/106# @FIU @HeidiCian @CenterForAstro

Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of #MLKDay, I hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.

Trump has now reaffirmed his plan to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education. For the record that department funds, among other things, all the special education and special needs program in public schools and public colleges in all 50 states.
