Annabel Stoler
Doctoral Student
Annabel Stoler is a doctoral student in the Math & Science Education program at Boston University Wheelock College of Education & Human Development. Her research focuses on designing learning environments that are critically caring and foster rich engagement with science practice. She is currently exploring scientific modeling as a site to disrupt inequities in elementary science classrooms. Her research is grounded in a commitment to working in public schools, collaborating with teachers, and highlighting young people’s voices. She is passionate about supporting pre-service teachers and preparing them to enter the profession with a vision of transformation and justice.
Annabel has presented her work at the International Conference of the Learning Sciences, the NARST annual conference, and the Learning Sciences Graduate Student Conference.
