    Author: Sean Harwell

    Sean Harwell is the new First2 STEM Grant Assistant, working with Dr. Erica Harvey at Fairmont State University.  He’ll be handling most travel and stipend requests for network members who aren’t current students, and also helping with technology and other organizational and capacity-building aspects of the network. Sean was a faculty member at Fairmont State for 3 years and obtained his M.Ed. in Digital Media, New Literacies, and Learning and his B.A. in Secondary Education with concentration in Biology and General Science from Fairmont State University. He has worked with Dr. Deb Hemler on the Earth and Space Science Passport professional development program that prepares teachers for the new ninth grade Earth and Space Science courses implementing the adoption of the West Virginia Next Generation Science Standards. He has also worked as an Adjunct Professor teaching SCIE 2200 - Oceans Issues and Society for 2 years and BIOL 1104 - Biosphere for one semester. He transitioned into working for New Kent Middle School as a STEM Teacher, and we are very glad to welcome him back to working at Fairmont State!
