Prof. Dr. Ingo Eilks FRSC
Ingo Eilks (1968) is a full
professor (chair) in chemistry education at the Institute for Science Education
(IDN) at the University of Bremen, Germany, since 2004. Having been a grammar
school teacher for chemistry and mathematics he later engaged in the domain of
chemistry education research and development. His research interests encompass
socio-scientific issues-based science teaching, education for sustainable
development, teaching and learning the particulate nature of matter, or
cooperative learning all for the high school level. For more than 20 years now
these interests are deeply connected to cooperatively working with teachers
following specifically adopted models of action research in science education.
Further research focuses teachers’ beliefs and learning as well as innovations
in higher level chemistry education. Ingo Eilks has written so far about 600
articles, chapters, textbooks, or has co-edited different books and special
issues in international journals (more than 100 in the Web of Science). He was
the co-editor of the first handbook on innovations in higher chemistry
education (2009) and of the first international textbook on chemistry teaching
for prospective chemistry teachers (2013). Since 2002, he is one of the
organizers of the biannual symposia on chemistry and science education held at
the Universities of Bremen and Dortmund, Germany.

Gillian
Roehrig
She is Professor of Science
Education, Associate Director of STEM Education Center, Biology Teaching and
Learning. Her research and teaching interests are centered on understanding how
teachers translate national and state standards into teaching events and
curriculum in their classrooms. Teachers’ knowledge and beliefs about teaching
and learning directly influence the specific teaching practices implemented by
teachers. Of particular interest is how teachers, from preservice through
induction and into the in-service years, represent “science as inquiry” in
their teaching and how different induction and professional development
programs can influence teachers’ knowledge, beliefs, and classroom practices.
In addition, with the current national and state focus on K-12 engineering, my
work focuses on STEM integration. This includes teacher professional
development and curriculum development to prepare teachers for integrating
engineering into their science classrooms. Her teaching is centered on the
preparation and mentoring of new secondary science teachers. The Teacher
Induction Network (TIN) is an online mentoring and support program for
beginning secondary STEM teachers. This innovative approach to supporting new
teachers includes video annotation that promotes the development of reflective
practice and reform-based classroom instruction. TIN has received two national
awards for best practices and innovation in science teaching from the
Association of Public and Land-grant Universities and the Association for
Science Teacher Education.
