    I am a marine microbiologist, with diverse experience in field and lab work. My current project is aiming to promote marine and climate literacy within the high-school community. I am developing novel teaching materials  based on cutting-edge scientific research, in order to provide a fundamental understanding of the impacts of climate change on marine biota.

    My research focuses on investigating the impact of introducing middle and high school students to climate change adaptive primary literature, and its effect on their inquiry competencies. In my PhD work, I introduce middle and high school students to adaptive primary scientific literature, with a focus on climate change. These adaptive primary papers maintain the canonical structure, argumentative genre, and evidence-based conclusions of original scientific papers. My goal is to analyze how this exposure to scientific methodology can enhance students' abilities to design and conduct experiments, and to draw conclusions based on data-driven evidence. Ultimately, my research aims to explore the potential of adaptive primary papers in providing an apprenticeship-like experience for students in their inquiry process.

    As a PhD student in science education with three decades of teaching experience in biology and science and developing learning materials, I've led numerous professional learning communities and witnessed firsthand how teaching methodology often matters more than content delivery. My extensive experience has reinforced my belief in education's transformative power to create positive change in our world. This insight drives my current research focus on teacher education and professional development, aiming to enhance professional development frameworks that will benefit both teachers and students.

    I have been a high school teacher for approximately 10 years. I began my professional journey as a veterinarian, graduating from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. After nearly a decade of working in veterinary medicine, I transitioned to education through an academic retraining program and have remained in this field ever since. In recent years, I’ve been creating digital activities using the PETL platform and taking part in different projects in the Department of Science Education. Now, I’m starting my Ph.D. in the same department, excited to dive even deeper into this field.

    With over 20 years of experience teaching Biology and Biotechnology, I am passionate about inspiring students and fostering their curiosity about the natural world. By continuously renewing and adapting my teaching strategies, I strive to make science education both effective and relevant. Being in the Master's program has provided an exciting opportunity to reembrace the role of a learner while exploring and engaging in research in the field of science education.
