Dr. Abha Singh has her MS and Ph.D. degrees in Science Education and Environment Science with a minor in Gifted Education from the University of Iowa, Iowa City. Her areas of specialization are in Elementary and Middle School Science Education. Her dissertation title is "Professional Development and Perspectives of Science Teachers: An Extracurricular Science Program for Gifted Middle School Students". She has presented at state, national and international conferences. Her latest research was a collaborative effort documenting weekly reflective journaling by in-service teachers as a means of initiating practice of "consistent reflection of teaching". Other presentations were Curriculum Innovation through the Practicum Experience and Professional Development: A Recipe for Excellence, which focused on encouraging teachers to use differentiation in teaching science to highly able science students at the Iowa Talented and Gifted Conference. Her desire is to encourage undergraduate science teachers to intergrate science content with other subject areas.
