Good
afternoon, COE!
Faculty in
the College of Science and Health (CSH) are in need of a research
assistant interested in educational outreach at the high school level.
They are working with Chicago Public Schools (CPS) to add a service
learning component to the science curriculum focused on environmental
health and specifically in identifying and controlling lead exposure.
They are
looking for a student to develop and implement the curriculum under the
guidance of CSH faculty and within the standards of the CPS curriculum.
They are
also interested in using principles of student led
inquiry, social justice centered pedagogy, and culturally relevant
curriculum to empower students and ultimately address the root
causes of the environmental health disparities.
The
position would be approximately 10 hours a week starting in the Autumn
term.
Please
contact Julia Lippert, jlipper1@depaul.edu for more information.
