SATAL Coordinator, Center for Engaged Teaching and Learning

Adriana facilitates the students-faculty partnerships to support assessment efforts on campus. As SATAL coordinator, Adriana provides on-going professional development to the undergraduates who collaborate with faculty on the assessment of teaching and learning in their courses (e.g., use of instructional time, learning activities, student engagement, and provide confidential feedback). By gathering student feedback, faculty find the results critical to improving their understanding of the learning needs and move towards a more culturally responsive pedagogy.

I am a researcher, educator, and proud alumna of UC Merced’s inaugural class. As a mycologist, I study plant-fungal interactions in response to changing climate. As an educator, I teach microbiology in an active learning online environment using real-world scenarios. Currently, I am completing my PhD uncovering the microbiome of a native montane species of monkeyflower in the Sierra Nevada. I am actively involved in the learning and teaching community at UC Merced and believe that understanding and implementing evidence-based teaching strategies is the best way to give opportunities to all students, develop myself as a professional in a world demanding more well rounded educators, and to be a part of this global teaching revolution.
