: Dr. Hill is the Director of the Center for Science and the Schools. She collaborates with scientists and engineers to design and implement STEM education outreach programs that bridge cutting-edge science and engineering research and K-12 classrooms. She is the PI for the USDA-funded project - Authentic Plant Pollinator Landscape Research for Educators (APPL-RED). In this program, K-12 educators learn about issues related to critical pollinators in natural and agricultural landscapes as well as research techniques utilized at the Center for Pollinator Research that readily transfer to the K-12 setting. These teachers are currently being supported to engage pre-college students in pollinator research projects at their school locations.
