Anthony Kline, Ph.D., interim dean of the Franks School of Education at Trine University,
recently co-authored a research article published in a peer-reviewed journal and a
chapter in a book on study abroad programs for educators.
“To See or Not to See: Preservice Teacher Attitudes Toward Color Blindness,” which included Kline as a co-author, was published in the Spring 2016 edition of the Teacher Educator journal. The research examined the perspectives of education students on diversity at the beginning and end of a 16-week course.
Kline also co-authored a chapter in the “Handbook of Research on Efficacy and Implementation of Study Abroad Programs for P-12 Teachers,” which will be published by IGI Global in December. The book highlights developments in study abroad programs for teachers and teacher education students, including the opportunities available and the challenges encountered during the development and implementation of study abroad programs.
Kline collaborated with faculty from Ball State University on both projects.
Trine University students Isaac Braun, a senior chemical engineering major from Portland, Indiana, and Ryan Sederstrom, a junior electrical engineering major from Cedar Lake, Indiana, placed 15th in the collegiate pairs tournament at the North American Bridge Championships.
Two Trine University faculty members recently participated in the biennial Actuarial Teaching Conference (ATC), held July 19-21 in Columbus, Ohio.
Trine University has been selected to be part of a national program to help campuses respond to the challenges and opportunities artificial intelligence (AI) presents for courses, curricula and higher education in general.
