Curriculum Vitae

Research

Dr. Molly Kelton aims to contribute to a world in which all members of society feel engaged and empowered to think deeply, expansively, and creatively about mathematics and STEM. Broadly, Dr. Kelton’s work seeks to critically examine and productively expand what counts as mathematics and STEM in contemporary society, with the goal of envisioning a more expansive and equitable mathematics education. Her research investigates mathematics learning in out-of-school time and across formal and informal environments, spanning K-12 classrooms, museums, maker spaces, and after-school clubs. She has contributed to research and design of several major mathematics exhibitions, including Math Moves! and Taping Shape. Across diverse settings, she also examines the role of physical movement and embodied experience in mathematical thinking and learning.

Dr. Kelton currently leads the NIH-funded Health Education through Arts-based Learning (HEAL) Collaborative. Learn more about HEAL here.

Dr. Kelton served as co-Principal Investigator of the Informal Mathematics Collaborative, a partnership among university mathematics educators, art and science museums, and community organizations serving under-represented youth. The Informal Mathematics Collaborative is funded by the National Science Foundation and has contributed to the design and research of numerous innovative public programs and exhibitions that blend mathematics, science, and the arts. This work advances current efforts to understand the educational potential of learning environments that integrate Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics (STEAM).

Teaching

Dr. Kelton serves and teaches in multiple teacher education, master’s, and doctoral programs in the department, including the Elementary Education undergraduate program, Master in Teaching program, Middle-level Mathematics Endorsement program, and the Mathematics & Science Education PhD program.

Teacher Education – Learning Outcomes

outcome photo-story

Learning Outcomes means beyond earning a degree, students must attain knowledge, skills, and abilities.

 

Upon completion of the BA in Education degree program, students will be able to:

  1. Use enduring content and pedagogical knowledge to inform their teaching (know content, critically evaluate literature on effective practice).
  2. Develop relevant, rigorous, and developmentally appropriate curricula (critically evaluate and apply literature on development, learning).
  3. Modify curriculum and instruction based on the individual needs of their students (address diversity in teaching/learning).
  4. Use assessment of their students’ learning and their own teaching to inform future planning and teaching (reflect on P-12 student learning outcome data, problem solve, critically evaluate literature on effective practice for use in classroom).
  5. Attend to the social and civic development of their students.
  6. Work respectfully & collaboratively with colleagues & community to ensure quality instructional programs & stewardship of public schools.

About the College of Education:

The College of Education is one of WSU’s oldest colleges, with its first dean taking the helm in 1918. Since that time, COE has been known primarily as a teaching and learning college, as well as an educational leadership college. The majority of certified K-12 superintendents in Washington, in fact, earned their certification through COE.

However, COE is very much a modern college, with degrees in athletic training, kinesiology, and sport management. In fact, our undergraduate kinesiology degree is one of the largest degrees, by enrollment.

Retrospective

We love remembering the good times!

Brittni and Riley Myklebust
Brittni Willis interviewing Pullman Police officer Riley Myklebust, as part of Education Eclipse. Riley is now a stellar deputy within the King County Sheriff’s Office :).

Kyla did so well working with Chappy in Fall 2016 that she was asked to come back for Spring 2017.

Trevor Havard was a great intern. He was capable of just grabbing a camera and heading to college events!

Katie Merrick in studio
Katie Merrick working in our video studio.

This internship is nothing if not fun.

Sometimes, there are just no adequate words to describe the interns.

Our broadcasting/digital media intern will definitely spend some time on the mic.

The toys we get to play with are no joke. This is our new Blackmagic 6K Cinema Camera.

Here’s the deal: we liked David Blehm but he was also a Broncos fan :(, so…

Will Matthews, our WSU ROAR videographer/editor, shoots the shooting!

Ivy Schank getting ready to deliver the college news on updatED, a weekly program.

This is either really cool or really embarrassing…

Other duties as assigned.

On any given day, our office becomes transformed!
