Larry Collins
Washington State University-Vancouver
I am a doctoral student at Washington State University and serve as the Graduate Student Representative for the Geoscience Education Division of the Geological Society of America and on their Geoscience Education Committee (2019-2021).
My primary research interests include understanding best assessment practices for evaluating student understanding of the nature of science, how structured peer review can shape students' views of science, and evaluating professional development teaching assistants and K-12 teachers. Our lab group at WSU collaborate with another DBER group in the School of Molecular Biosciences where we are investigating deliberative argumentation in large-lecture biology courses. I am always open to new opportunities to work with others so feel free to reach out! I look forward to meeting you in Nashville this summer!
