I worked in science research for 20 years before getting my teaching certificate.  I taught high school science for 1.5 years in a traditional brick and mortar public school and 6 years in an online cyber school in Pennsylvania.

I have been in the education profession for more than 20 years. I worked in a public school as an Horticulture/Agriculture teacher with FFA and then began teaching physical science, earth science and environmental science in a private school setting closer to home. I also have earned my endorsement in driver's education. I keep adding to my skillset so that I never stop learning, and increase my value as a teacher. By doing this, I hope to improve the lives and the educational outcomes of my students. 

I teach Middle Grades Science Methods and Environmental Education. My research interests include outdoor classrooms and environmental literacy in pre-service teacher education.

Support masters level environmental professional programs at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies.

My name is Jess, I am a senior here at Delval and I’m majoring in Conservation and Wildlife Management. I love all animals and have a soft spot for marine biology. I like gaming, painting, listening to music, and all things DC. I'm really passionate about fossils and the Cambrian period, I find that really interesting and love learning about what Earth was like before we were here.

My passion is helping environmental organizations create conservation movements that grow.

PUDDLESTOMPERS' mission is to connect the youngest naturalists, ages 2 to 8 (and their parents and caregivers) to the open spaces in their communities. PUDDLESTOMPERS seeks to help build the foundation for a lifelong enjoyment, love of the outdoors, and a lasting stewardship of nature.

My name is Amanda Colecio, and I am a Small Animal Science, Pre-Professional Major at Delaware Valley University. I graduated from Lehigh Carbon Community College in May with my Associate's in Applied Health Science Veterinary Technician degree, and I am currently a Certified Veterinary Technician. Through tech school, I have gained extensive hands-on experience with multiple species of animals, and I completed an internship at Northeast Veterinary Referral / Specialty Hospital, and Country Doctor Veterinary Hospital. Both sites allowed me to hone in on my clinical skills and learn about many different cases along the way. At my internship I was able to work alongside very experienced techs and doctors, and anesthesia has been my favorite subject to learn about. My long-term goal is to be a Veterinarian, and that is why I decided to continue my education at Delaware Valley. With my strong critical thinking and communication skills, I think that I offer many benefits to the veterinary field. I am looking to expand my knowledge and experiences through any opportunities that arise in my future.
