Dr. Plummer recently completed a combined Ph.D. program in Astronomy and Education at the University of Michigan, focusing primarily on elementary students’ understanding of celestial motion and astronomy. While working toward her degree, Plummer immersed herself in the field of science. “I taught introductory astronomy and elementary science education classes, wrote middle school science curricula on astronomy and energy, and worked as a planetarium operator,” she says.
