The Popova Group is very excited to welcome our new postdoc, Dr. Lu Shi!
A warm welcome to Dr. Lu Shi who joined the Popova group as a Postdoctoral Scholar!
Lu earned her PhD with Dr. Marilyne Stains at the University of Virginia. Lu’s graduate school research focused on studying chemistry instructors, as well as on developing and evaluating a survey to measure the Departmental Climate around Teaching (DCaT). Her work resulted in several insightful publications:
- Shi, L., Popova, M., Erdmann, R., Pellegrini, A., Le, B., Johnson, V., Nelson, T., Nelson, Z., Undersander, M., & Stains, M., Exploring the complementarity of measures of instructional practices. CBE-Life Science Education, (in review).
- Shi, L., & Stains, M., Development of the Departmental Climate around Teaching (DCaT) survey: neither psychological collective climate nor departmental collective climate predicts STEM faculty’s instructional practices. International Journal of STEM Education, 8(1), 1-20, 2021.
- Popova, M., Shi, L., Harshman, J., Kraft, A., & Stains, M. Untangling a complex relationship: Teaching beliefs and instructional practices of assistant chemistry faculty at research-intensive institutions. Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 21(2), 513-527, 2020.
We are so excited to welcome Lu to the group!
