Alexandra Holden, a Fairfield High School graduate, recently presented her research at the National Science Teaching Association National Conference on Science Education in Denver, Colorado. As one of seven Wartburg College students who showcased their work at the conference, Holden’s focus was on “Composting with Cockroaches in Northeast Iowa K-12 Schools.”
Michael Bechtel, an associate professor of science education at Wartburg College, also presented his research on “Bat Houses to Reduce Malaria Infections and International Progress” at the conference. This research aimed to establish sustainable bat houses in tropical regions as a way to combat malaria infections. Bechtel expressed his pride in the dedication of Wartburg students towards their research efforts.
The success of the presentations and attendance at the conference were made possible through the support from Wartburg’s undergraduate research program, Student Senate and the college’s NSTA chapter. Through this opportunity, students like Holden were able to showcase their work on a national platform and engage with educators and experts in the field of science education.
