Sara E Harris (born 1969) is a Canadian scientist, and professor in the department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences, and the associate dean academic[1] in the Faculty of Science at the University of British Columbia.[2] In 2015, she was named a 3M National Teaching Fellow for her MOOC on climate change.[3][4][5]

Education

[edit]

Sara Harris obtained her PhD in geological oceanography from the College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences, Oregon State University in 1998.[6]

Career

[edit]

From 1998 to 2005, she served as the chief scientist at the Sea Education Association in Woods Hole, Massachusetts.[7] In this role, she would take students out to sea for six weeks to teach methodologies for collecting oceanographic data as well as navigation and sailing.[8] She was a senior instructor at the University of British Columbia prior to becoming professor of teaching there.[9] In that role, she studies evidence-based science education[10][11] and how people learn climate science.[12] In 2013, she co-taught a massive open online course called Climate Literacy: Navigating Climate Change Conversations,[13] and later taught Climate Change: The Science on the edX platform.[14]

Teaching

[edit]

Harris has taught a number of courses at the University of British Columbia, including Introduction to Environmental Science, Research Project in Environmental Science, The Fluid Earth: Atmosphere and Ocean, and Global Climate Change. [15]
