Ali Carr-Chellman
Former Teacher; Now An Instructional Designer and Author on Effective Instruction on Learning
A former third-grade teacher, Ali Carr-Chellman realized that traditional elementary classrooms weren't for her, in part because she was frustrated by the lack of innovation, agility, and readiness to change in traditional schools.
She's now an instructional designer, author and educator, working on how to change and innovate within schools to make education work better for more kids.
She teaches at Penn State University in the College of Education, working primarily with doctoral-level students to help produce the next generation of faculty with inspired research ideas and methods.
Carr-Chellman also teaches online courses focused on helping practicing teachers learn how to improve their own instructional design practices and how to improve their classrooms.
Her recent research projects include "Bring Back the Boys," looking at ways gaming can be used to re-engage boys in their elementary education.
Another projects asks prisoners and homeless people to think about how to reform schools, bringing new voices to the policy-making table.
