Amy’s dissertation title was Millennial High School Teachers’ Perceptions of the Danielson Framework for Teaching as an Evaluation Tool: A Mixed-Methods Approach.
Sipovic said, “The research and writing skills I developed while a student at IWU helped me complete this graduate program. The History and Educational Studies Departments, specifically, trained me to become a critical thinker and thoughtful writer. I currently teach social studies at Streator Township High School and live in Ottawa, Illinois. Elizabeth Wilkins is a professor at NIU and lives in DeKalb.”
