Dr. Allison Downing, Assistant Teaching Professor in the Center for STEM Education, serves as the fall series coordinator. She points out that the upcoming series will feature speakers covering unconventional topics.

鈥淭his term, several of our speakers will be presenting topics that are not typically discussed within the educational setting, such as informal education and ethics in STEM,鈥 said Downing.鈥 Attendees should expect to be exposed to a variety of innovative pedagogies and thought-provoking topics.鈥

Downing notes that the series provides multi-dimensional benefits.

鈥淲e are able to expose our speakers to an audience they may not typically be able to reach,鈥 she said. 鈥淲e are also able to expose our faculty and students to speakers and topics that may not normally be reached in South Mississippi.鈥
