Greg has been with UC Berkeley's Center for Science Education at the Space Sciences Lab since 1999, right after finishing his PhD in the UCLA Astronomy & Astrophysics program. He came to Berkeley after being selected for an NSF science education postdoctoral fellowship, by the PFSMETE program. Following three years of the NSF fellowship, Greg was subsequently promoted into the staff position listed above, continuing his science education efforts with the group. His work has been primarily focused on (pre-service) teacher education, (in-service) teacher professional development, and science curriculum development. Within these focus areas, Greg's research & development activities in science education have involved effectively integrating or utilizing astronomy & space science, and have been grounded in constructivist and inquiry-oriented design and pedagogy. He's developed, coordinated and implemented such projects primarily for the Sun-Earth Connection Education Forum (SECEF), part of the NASA Science Mission Directorate's national education/outreach support network.
