DBER Seminars
DBER is a weekly Seminar Series that emphasizes discipline-based STEM education research. It is a forum for faculty, staff, researchers, and students interested in education research and course transformation to share their ideas and get feedback on their work.
DBER is multi-disciplinary. These seminars bring together faculty and graduate students from roughly 45 different programs and departments across four schools/colleges. The average attendance is more than 20 people. In addition to being intellectually rich, these meetings also serve to create community among the many STEM education researchers on campus. All are welcome to attend.
Location:
Unless otherwise noted, meetings take place every Tuesday from 3:30-4:30 PM in Atlas 1B31. (A calendar of presentations will soon be available on our Events page.)
