Jennifer Love, Northeastern University, shared an update PostedThursday, November 21, 2019 at 8:43 PM I'm still working on my doctorate in education at Northeastern University, where I also teach engineering as a full-time non-tenure track professor. I'm still working on my doctorate in education at Northeastern University, where I also teach engineering as a full-time non-tenure track professor. My EdD research is on implementing the 2016 Massachusetts Science Technology & Engineering Curriculum Frameworks in a public school district and documenting teachers' experiences. After incorporating sun dials into one of my college engineering courses last year, I'm now designing a large "human" sundial for an elementary school in Massachusetts. Show More

Tamara Moore and Christina Tank have A TON of picture STEM books that they've incorporated into their PictureSTEM curriculum, some of which I have tried, especially the Hamsters Habitat unit for 1st graders that uses the Leo Cockroach Toy Tester book. I am always on the lookout for more great books so I will be sure to check out your library on Link Engineering. I love picturebookwoman.com by the way! Jen Love Show More
