Science and Society: The Challenge of Teaching Across Disciplines

According to the organizers:

Monica Rowley and Karen Rowley Hogan teach across disciplinary lines. Monica is a poet who teaches science students at Brooklyn Tech High School, and Karen is a biologist who teaches art and design students at University of Pennsylvania. Both are interested in using interdisciplinarity in the classroom to create the next generation of problem-solvers.

Join us as they share stories from the classroom and growing up in a home of seven children, and learn how these experiences shaped their views on the future of education, biology, research, and the humanities.

This is a free lecture, light refreshments will be served
