Dr. Cathy Lachapelle is the director of research and evaluation for EiE. She leads the assessment efforts for the EiE curriculum, designing assessment instruments, pilot and field testing them, and conducting research on how children use the EiE materials. She has worked on a number of research and evaluation projects related to K-16 STEM education, including the Women’s Experiences in College Engineering (WECE) study of factors influencing the persistence of undergraduate women in engineering schools. She is particularly interested in how students learn science, engineering, and mathematics through collaborative interaction and through scaffolded experiences engaging in disciplinary practices. Cathy received her S.B. in cognitive science from MIT, and her Ph.D. in psychological studies in education from Stanford University.
