I'm so excited to be in this forum and a member of this community!!!
I'm conducting a research study exploring how the integration of instructional technology in STEM classrooms affects girls' comprehension and engagement - and I'm looking to connect with middle school science educators willing to share their perspectives and classroom experiences.
Who I'm hoping to connect with:
- Current or recent middle school science teachers
- Experience integrating digital tools/technology into STEM instruction
- Interest in discussing gender-inclusive teaching practices
Study details:
One 30–45 minute virtual interview (Zoom or phone), scheduled around your availability
All responses confidential; pseudonyms used in any reporting or publication
Why this matters:
Findings from this study aim to inform strategies that support more effective, equitable technology integration in STEM instruction - particularly around closing gender gaps in STEM engagement and comprehension.
If you're a middle school science teacher (or know someone who is), I'd love to connect. Comment below, send a message, or reach out directly at khawkins416@gmail.com or kb861@mynsu.nova.edu by August 22, 2026.
Feel free to share with colleagues in your network who might be a good fit - every perspective helps strengthen this research !!!!
