@tjscience I think my former doc student, Biz Wright, personally got into each of those offices and turned the lights on😺

And thank you Dr. Tara O’Neill & Dr. Kirsten Mawyer for book review in Teacher College Record (August 2018) of the Ambitious Science Teaching book. Crtitique about "Whose knowledge counts?" is real and something we'll pay attention to.
