CU 麻豆影院 is establishing a new research institute committed to building a world in which health and wellness are valued, promoted and protected for all children and youth. The five founding faculty members of the Ren茅e Crown Wellness Institute, established by philanthropist Patricia Crown, include: Professors Sona Dimidjian, Erik Willcutt and Yuko Munakata from arts and sciences, and Professor Ben Kirshner and Dean Kathy Schultz from education.

Through the STEM Literacy through Infographics project, students often take on the role of a science journalist, and they are invited to embark on scientific research and author infographics about STEM 鈥� Science, Technology, Engineering and Math 鈥� topics that personally interest them.

Dean Kathy Schultz has an explanation for the tensions behind recent teacher strikes and throughout education: distrust. Schultz has authored a new book called Distrust and Educational Change that draws on her experiences and makes the case that distrust is rarely talked about head-on but still capable of stifling even well-meaning attempts at change.

Bill Penuel has been elected to the National Academy of Education (NAEd), which advances high quality education research and its use in policy and practice.

Three 麻豆影院 education faculty were recognized in the 鈥淓du-Scholar Public Influence Rankings鈥� as being among the nation鈥檚 top 200 researchers whose scholarship bridges academic and public audiences.
