Ashmann received the Ph.D. in science education from Michigan State
University (2002); Master in Administrative Leadership from University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee (1997); B.S. in chemistry and education from University
of Wisconsin-Green Bay (1988). He has taught chemistry, physics, earth science,
and ecology at the high school level. From 1992-96, he directed the Regional
Center for Math and Science at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. In
2002, he received an Excellence-In-Teaching Citation from Michigan State
University for his work in the undergraduate and graduate teacher education
programs.
Dr. Ashmann's research interests are focused on the professional development
of science teachers. His dissertation explored what and how a secondary
science teacher learns about the teaching of science from the experience
of being a mentor to a student teacher. He has worked on a research project
that investigated the organizational capacity of schools and school districts
that foster teaching science for understanding. He is currently involved
in a research study that is examining the development of leadership in mathematics
and science education in the United States. |
