Subject: [LTER-education] LTER EOC Meeting Reminder-April, 1, 2021

Hello All!

We hope you are doing well as life, once again, begins to emerge as we kick into Spring!


It is almost time, once again, for our monthly meeting!

As a reminder, please add any items you have to the agenda in the link below.

Kara and I are looking forward to seeing you all next week.  We've got another presentation!

This month, we'll kick the meeting off with Diana Arya, an associate professor in the Department of Education, here at UCSB's Gevirtz Graduate School of Education (GGSE). Her research interests focus on the literacy practices and processes within K-12 science classrooms and professional scientific communities. Through her investigations of text-based (data, simulations, co-constructions, etc.) and inquiry-based activities, she explores what counts as science and scientific discourse across these learning communities. As such, Diana’s research is focused on language in use within the intersections of school science curricula, the varied genres of scientific texts, classroom interactions, and how disciplinary knowledge is constructed within the context of the discursive practices of scientists across disciplines.

Diana’s current research focuses on the observed gap between the literacy practices (i.e., discourse, reading, writing, and engagement in inquiry-based practices) of scientists and literacy activities designed for secondary science school curricula. She hopes that her work contributes to closing this gap. Within a multifaceted design grounded in a discourse base, Diana attempts to make visible the layered interpretations of standards-driven proscriptions for STEM-related classroom practices, and what is made available for teachers and their students in order to engage with the kinds of work that scientists actually do. As such, she has engaged in a variety of research practices with fellow scholars, researchers and graduate students, including classroom observations, cognitive interviews, narrative analysis, regression-based modeling, and the design and evaluation of assessments using Rasch modeling.

I have had the pleasure of working with Diana over the past two years on a community-based literacy project we've developed, "Our Maritime Community."  We also developed a new course for undergrads, "Community Based Coastal Literacies" to prepare them for working with our Harding University Partnership School Program.
