The Department of Education at Montana State University seeks to hire a post-doctoral scholar, starting Fall 2022, to contribute to a multi-institution NSF-funded study. The project “Investigating how intensive and modest supports effect rural, elementary teachers’ science and engineering practice” aims to build foundational knowledge on the sustainability of targeted science and engineering instructional improvements in rural schools and the viability of extending these programs through the implementation of modest teacher supports. Duties and Responsibilities:

• Work directly with the entire team (CA, ND, MT, WY) to help coordinate the collaboration of teachers from small schools in each state to ensure participants who engage with specific supports are connected with each other.
• Dissemination of project results through development of conference papers and manuscripts for peer reviewed journals.
• Mentor graduate and undergraduate students working on education research projects

BSCS Science Learning (BSCS) has an immediate opening for a Science Educator to develop engineering education resources for informal STEM learning and teaching. We are looking for someone to join a project that is developing a set of museum-based activities and instructional materials for educators, families, youth, and public audiences. We seek a motivated, creative individual who shares our mission of transforming science education, and our commitment to equity and social justice.
