This summer was so professionally productive - ran PD for developing Defenders Day modules, conducted training with fellow master IMP teachers at Towson, completed a summer course for my doctorate, and worked on new #edtech software. Tomorrow I’ll back in the classroom with Ss!

The ISTC Ph.D. Program would like to congratulate Douglas Elmendorf for receiving COE's 2023 Dean's Recognition Award! This award recognizes alumni who have attained notable achievements or made lasting contributions in their career fields.

Congrats, Douglas Elmendorf!
