STC Education and Research Special Interest Group
Education and research is very broad, therefore, we can expect to learn a great deal about a variety of topics related to education from one another. I welcome this and hope that this SIG will grow and become an open forum for people to share and express ideas on the research that they are performing or hope to perform. I believe that this SIG can provide all of us an opportunity to be exposed to bright insights and novel expressions of creativity and brilliance. Some of my educational research goals are radically unique. It is from this perspective that I hope to elicit similar ideas from others.
