Dr. Eve Manz is an associate professor of science education at Boston University Wheelock College of Education & Human Development. The core motivation of her work is supporting teachers and young people to engage in learning that builds from their capabilities toward new ways of seeing themselves, each other, and the world. Most of her work has been conducted in the field of elementary science education, where she has studied how to develop learning environments that meaningfully engage children in science practices such as modeling, argumentation, and explanation. She works closely with elementary teachers and instructional leaders to develop new approaches to science instruction that center student and teacher sense-making. In one current project, with support from a National Science Foundation CAREER grant, Dr. Manz works with teachers and district partners in Somerville Public Schools to develop new approaches to the elementary school science investigation. In a second current project, she has worked with an interdisciplinary team of researchers to develop and pilot Great First Eight, a full-day, assets-based, interdisciplinary curriculum for young children in metropolitan areas. Dr. Manz’s work has been been funded by the James S. McDonnell Foundation, the George Lucas Educational Foundation, the Kellogg Foundation, and the National Science Foundation She is the recipient of the 2019 Early Career Research Award from the National Association for Research in Science Teaching and recently served on the National Academies of Science and Engineering Committee on Enhancing Science and Engineering in Prekindergarten through Fifth Grades.
