SHOWCASE
Throughout my graduate experience, I have created many pieces (presentations, websites, papers) that represent the bigger ideas that I have developed. They fall into two general themes: Educational Technology and Problem Solutions:
Educational Technology
These include artifacts that focus on the implementation of technology in the classroom, specifically in regards to assessments, and creative ways to engage students in various lessons.
Dream Project Website
This website brings about a multimodal way of learning a large unit of psychology: Brain Biology. Since it is heavy in content, I developed a way to mainstream smaller lessons with a "Watch, Take Notes, and Practice" interactive system for students to actively engage with the material.
Online Learning System
In order to mimic a university learning course for my AP psychology students, I have created an online structure in which they can interact with assignments, announcements, and communicate with both their instructor and peers. (This site is still in progress)

Problem Solutions
In these artifacts, a problem has been identified in the beginning of the semester with a solution being found throughout the rest of the class. These were found through action research and elements of design thinking.
Problem of practice report
In this report, I identified student testing anxiety as something I wanted to work to alleviate towards the AP Psychology final exam. I used the Stanford Design Model to think of and test possible solutions. I practiced approaching and testing problems in a creative manner.
Teaching stem content to ell's
This is a professional development lesson plan, which includes a PowerPoint presentation and handouts. Within this lesson plan, I showcase skills of how to teach instructors about how to best approach ELL (English language Learning) students while they are still developing English skills and learning complex math and science terminology.
Vision Report
In the past, science education has traditionally focused on rote recitation of content by students; however, my vision entails running a classroom where all can view themselves as scientists. This can be done through the showcased skills of mindful questioning, argumentation, and teaching content first, as read in this vision report.
