Angela Fitzgerald Author & Editor

Angela Fitzgerald is ​an Adjunct Associate Professor (Science Curriculum and Pedagogy) in the School of Education, University of Southern Queensland. Her main focus is engaging in activities that support pre- and in-service teachers in developing their confidence and competence in the learning and teaching of science in primary school settings. She has also engaged in the professional experience space nationally and internationally, which has involved supporting pre-service teachers in their learning to teach journey and building partnerships with education stakeholders. Importantly, in the context of this collection, while Ange’s research interests do not align in an obvious way with the underlying themes of this collection, she brings a wealth of editorial experience and expertise. She has solo and co-edited five collections (all involving multiple authors based across Australia and New Zealand) and is the co-editor-in-chief of a Q1 journal (Research in Science Education). Ange has the ability to work with a diverse group of people to deliver projects on time and of a high quality.
