Author Information

Rose M. Pringle, PhD, is an associate professor in science education in the School of Teaching and Learning at the University of Florida. Her research agenda includes interrelated themes within the continuum of science teacher education, including teacher learning, science-specific pedagogical practices, and the promotion of teachers’ cultural competence. Dr. Pringle investigates pedagogical content knowledge as a framework for shifting practices to heighten teachers’ stance toward issues of social justice and their roles in positioning learners who traditionally, are underrepresented in science – specifically, girls of African descent. She therefore operates at the nexus between what knowledge teachers need and how it becomes translated into equitable and culturally sustaining practices in science teaching and learning. Her work with teachers therefore challenges assumptions and the status quo toward broadening participation in science and science related-careers.
