| Kathleen Anne Podraza is a middle school teacher at the Kickemuit Middle School in Warren, RI serving both towns of Warren and Bristol. Presently, she is teaching eighth graders physics, biology, and anatomy. Kathleen received an undergraduate degree at the University of Rhode Island and a Masters in Teaching with concentrations in English and Science from Rhode Island College. She is a National Science Foundation Fellow (Annenberg Grant, Brown University), a National Writing Consortium Fellow, and participated in a teachers’ SEA Experience aboard the SSV Westward (Woods Hole, MA), enabling her to do scientific research after an academic program in oceanography and marine science. She participated in the Discovery of Rhode Island Coastal Environments (DOCE) at the University of Rhode Island’s Office of Marine Programs, co-creating with a team of teachers a virtual tour of RI Salt Pond at Galilee. Her interest in archaeology has taken her to several local sites, to Crow Canyon in the Four Corners area of the Southwest, and to the University of Reading, UK’s Roman excavation outside of Reading, England. The Rhode Island Teacher at Sea (RITAS) experience brings her to the world of marine archaeology and continued life long learning! | ||||||||
