Barbara Stern, Voices of Scholarship
Professor of Middle, Secondary, and Mathematics Education
Dr. Stern specializes in the integration of technology into social studies, the history of teaching social studies, and curriculum theory. Despite a national pastime of visiting historical sites, battlefields, and museums, many Americans retain very little knowledge of history while in school. Dr. Stern’s work seeks to remedy this problem, by developing teaching methods that incorporate meaning and understanding in social studies classrooms.
