Our department is committed to advancing the field of science education research. This area of study focuses on understanding and improving the ways in which science is taught and learned, both inside and outside the classroom. By exploring innovative teaching methods, curriculum development, and the impact of educational programs, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of science teaching/learning and promote environmental stewardship. Our research in this field contributes to the growing body of knowledge that supports effective college science education and marine science outreach efforts, ensuring that future generations are well-equipped to address the challenges facing our oceans.
