For Alumni
Welcome to the School of Education Alumni Site!
Cristine Gilliland (MAT '98) developed a curriculum for her 6th grade science class that connects the physics concepts they are learning to the real-life situation of the 2010 Olympics. Her curriculum is called "Newton Goes to the Olympics" and was accepted for publication on the Educational Showcase of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics web page.
