Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Dr. Rebecca Keller received her PhD in biophysical chemistry from the University of New Mexico in 1992. She was then awarded a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of New Mexico, followed by a Burroughs Wellcome Fund Postdoctoral Fellowship in the Department of Molecular Biology at the University of California, Berkeley. As Dr. Keller home schooled her three children, she was unable to find a curriculm that provided them with a solid foundation in science. Using her scientific background coupled with her love of learning, she left academia to develop a series of science books for kids. The Real Science-4-Kids curriculum developed by Dr. Keller provides students with a solid foundation in science and also gives them the tools to evaluate scientific data on their own. “We should not rely on the ‘experts’ but instead learn how to critically evaluate every scientific claim,” states Dr. Keller. “In these uncertain times with so many social, scientific, and economic problems, it is not enough to teach our kids what to learn. We must also teach them how to learn, and we must encourage our kids to learn from others. Part of learning from others is to know how to engage in productive debate.” Real Science-4-Kids, with its easy to use, teacher-friendly manuals and engaging, kid-friendly text, is used in all 50 states in the US and in many other countries. Dr. Keller’s publishing team continues to develop and test products at her Albuquerque headquarters.
