SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS

Equity Alliance @ ASU

The equity assistance center at ASU (http://www.equityallianceatasu.org) is

responsible for assistance activities for California, Arizona and Nevada. Gibson serves as

the Evaluation Lead of the Alliance and directs data collection, analysis and

representation, making meaning from complex dynamical data, partnerships and

sustainability activities. Impacts include reaching over 25,000 people each year with a

tiered system of technical assistance, professional learning, provision of research-based

publications and information, formation of professional networks, and continuous

improvement of complex systems of education.

Research topics:

Mapping community influences on educational systems Impact of data

visualization and representation on school leadership and policy decisions as

well as technical assistance project leadership decisions Complex system

modeling of school and district organizational dynamics

simSchool

The simSchool project (http://www.simschool.org) is an online simulation of a

classroom, designed to give teachers practice in key learning concepts and theories such

as the Zone of Proximal Development, Activity Theory, Differentiated Instruction,

Interpersonal Psychology, Learning characteristics, and Special Education. A research

collaboration with Rhonda Christensen and Gerald Knezek of the University of North

Texas funded by the U.S. Department of Education Fund for the Improvement of Post-

Secondary Education (FIPSE) has established its impacts on teacher preparation, which

include: significant increases in self-efficacy in differentiating instruction, significant

increases in beliefs in technology as a tool of teaching, and learning about teaching that

abqdp3@r.postjobfree.com

is on a par with face-to-face training. These impacts led to Texas NCATE approving

simSchool as a replacement for 10 hours of student teaching experience.

Research topics:

Cognitive and professional development of teachers Impacts of simulation on

users Modeling emotion, cognition, instruction, and learning in digital

environments Network-based assessment

The Global Challenge Award

The GCA (http://www.globalchallengeaward.org) established with funding in 2006

from the National Science Foundation ITEST Program, and awarded a 2010 MacArthur

Foundation-HASTAC Competition award, provides a K16 partnership framework that

supports young women and minority high school students for three years and hundreds

of hours outside of school to develop the knowledge, skills and personal vision to see

science, technology, engineering and mathematical (STEM) studies as feasible and

desirable choices for college majors. Impacts include engagement of over 230 US

students and 230 students from around the world each year, who are formed into

mentored international teams that learn together for up to 280 hours and compete for

significant privately raised scholarships while working with IT tools of science -

computational science and communication tools - on real-life problems. Student

knowledge and skills are enhanced through highly engaging, intensive, long-term

contact with research scientists, engineers, mathematicians and project leaders who help

the students use innovative technologies in a new synthesis of online support materials

and structures for STEM learning.

Research topics:

Gender preferences in STEM education Game and simulation-based

educational design frameworks and learning tools Informal science and digital

media learning.
