Science Faculty w/ Edu Specialties (SFES)
Hired as SFES or transitioned into SFEC?
Tenure-track or non-tenure track? Integrated into department or
isolated? Minute paper – What concerns do
you have as a SFES

How can we improve writing of honors theses? “This can’t be done!” “Can’t you just be the Writing Czar?” “But how will you know….”
Pilot WID/Office of Assessment
“You can’t make faculty use this tool.”
“But my students are already good writers because I work with them.”

Obstacles
Joe said it couldn’t be done Dave said I shouldn’t be allowed to
teach Amy said my students’ writing is crap Alec said I would always be a 2nd class
citizen Deans said I would never be satisfied

Brainstorming

SCIENCE VOL 322 19 DECEMBER 2008
![Page 23: Science Faculty with Education Specialties: One Scholar’s Journey Julie Reynolds, Duke University July 16, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7e5503460f94b8183c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Myth #1
SFES will develop new courses and add innovations to existing courses that will solve the problems incurred in teaching students who are deficient in their understanding of basic science.
![Page 24: Science Faculty with Education Specialties: One Scholar’s Journey Julie Reynolds, Duke University July 16, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7e5503460f94b8183c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Myth #2
By designing and teaching a few courses that align goals with appropriate activities and assessments for students who will complete teacher certification programs, SFES can become responsible for the science training of future K–12 science teachers.
![Page 25: Science Faculty with Education Specialties: One Scholar’s Journey Julie Reynolds, Duke University July 16, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7e5503460f94b8183c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Myth #3
New SFES can replace senior faculty who have dedicated their careers to teaching and furthering the causes of science education.
![Page 26: Science Faculty with Education Specialties: One Scholar’s Journey Julie Reynolds, Duke University July 16, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7e5503460f94b8183c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Myth #4
SFES will be the best teachers in a science department and will have nothing to learn from the teaching experiences of senior science faculty.
![Page 27: Science Faculty with Education Specialties: One Scholar’s Journey Julie Reynolds, Duke University July 16, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7e5503460f94b8183c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Myth #5
SFES can teach and provide service to the department without the need for resources (time and space) to do research because their research is conducted as they teach their classes.
![Page 28: Science Faculty with Education Specialties: One Scholar’s Journey Julie Reynolds, Duke University July 16, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7e5503460f94b8183c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Myth #6
The problem with science education in general is that social science research methods and science education theory lack the rigor of basic science.
![Page 29: Science Faculty with Education Specialties: One Scholar’s Journey Julie Reynolds, Duke University July 16, 2010.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032605/56649e7e5503460f94b8183c/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
