Why am I here?

I'm at a transition point in my life between science educator and grad student.  I reflect a lot on my experiences as an educator and instructional coach. Experiences that I'm sure will inform many decisions I will make in my near future. As a grad student, I will have the time I've so often wanted to read research about science education and also to speak and work with science teachers outside of the district that I 'grew up in' as a teacher.   I enjoy exchanging tidbits, tricks, links, and ideas, so that's what I plan to do here.
