All Full and Part-Time Faculty are invited to the 2019 Winter Faculty Retreat, Tues., Jan. 22, 8:30am to 3:10pm, Lundring Events Center, Thousand Oaks Campus. The Keynote Presentation will be given by Bryan Dewsbury, Ph.D., a Gardner Institute Fellow and an Assistant Professor of Biology at the University of Rhode Island. Dr. Dewsbury is the Principal Investigator of the SEAS (Science Education And Society) Research Program, which focuses on questions relating to identity constructs, bias, relationships, and the effects of those variables on learning in students (K-PhD). More specifically, Dr. Dewsbury is interested in how students (especially those in underrepresented groups) develop perceptions of the world and others, and how these perceptions might in turn affect their engagement with science content, career choices, and ultimately their academic performance.
