Jonathan Smith is passionate about science education, and few topics in the sciences are as misunderstood as biological evolution. He will discuss the myriad ways evolution isn’t accepted, and how a science-literate public can dispel myths and educate others.
Dr Smith has his PhD in Science Education, is a founding member and Vice President of the Florida Citizens for Science, is a lifetime member of the National Center of Science Education. He is a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, was one of the framers of the new Florida State Science Standards, and consults on science education.
