About Me
I’m an educator, physicist, industrial engineer, and data scientist. I use those skills to advocate for students and teachers from K12 to university. Since 2023 I’ve been at the American Physical Society as the Project Lead on PhysTEC, STEP UP, and the Physics and Astronomy Faculty Teaching Institute. Prior to that, I taught in high school for ten years and was the PhysTEC Teacher-in-Residence in the UCF Physics department where I recruited STEM majors to consider teaching high school Physics when they graduate.
I’m always interested in collaborating with curious minds who want to do great things. I’m really into helping educators reform their courses, too. Check out the Send an email to adamlamee@gmail.com or read out more about me.
Coding in K12
Coding in K12 offers a way for K12 teachers with no programming experience to give meaningful coding experiences to their students while also addressing regular course content. Embedding our coding activities into core courses improves equity and access, regardless of background or family income, for thousands of students. Here’s what that looks like.
Supporting STEM Education
Every high school student deserves a well-rounded science education to have equal access to STEM careers. For a student planning on any technical or academic work after high school, they need to have a full year each of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Making that happen may be easier than you think. Need to see some data to back that up? That’s on my STEM Education page. I’m also active in Quarknet particle physics outreach.
